Manta rays that visit a channel here in numbers reliable enough to set your dive schedule around, stone money still recognised as legal currency despite some discs being taller than a person, and a traditional culture that has kept tourism deliberately small-scale.

The best time to visit Yap is Dec–Apr, when typical daytime highs reach about 28°C (83°F).
