Truk and Palau October 27th, 2006 - November 11th, 2006

Two of the best dive locations in the world and you can hit them both with this trip.  We will start our adventure with a week in Truk Lagoon (Chuuk).  This area is rich in World War II history.  The ocean floor is littered with the remnants of one of the greatest battles of the Pacific.  We will dive Japanese war ships with tanks still on the decks.  Swim through these amazing ships that patrolled the waters of the pacific.  Take in views of Jap Zeros as they rest on the bottom.  A haunting remainder of how important this area was before the ocean life cycle took over and filled the once mighty war machines with a different type of creature. 

Between dives you will meet the people that call this place home when will tour former military installations and try to better understand the critical role this area played in the war.

We will be staying at the Truk Blue Lagoon Dive Resort in ocean view rooms. Where in the evenings you can take in the breathtaking sunsets while relaxing on the lanai outside your room. 

Our dives will be conducted by Blue Lagoon Dive Shop.  This will be the fifth time diving with Blue Lagoon.  Their attentive staff will amaze you with there knowledge of the area, and we look forward to their wonderful service. 

After our week in Truk we fly over to Palau.  The abundant underwater life in Palau is unmatched anywhere in the world.  From its beautiful soft corals to its majestic sea fans it truly in a breathtaking place.  

We will be staying at the world famous Palau Pacific Resort.  This 5 star resort is the ultimate in upscale pampering. 

In Palau we will be diving with Neco Marine.  The trip to the dive sites is almost as beautiful as the reefs themselves.  As we weave through the rock islands we will keep watch for the wild dolphins that surface to play at our bow.  Diving below you will have a chance to encounter some of Palau's  700 species of coral (400 hard corals) and over 1300 species of fish.  More than anywhere else in the world.
