Truk Lagoon

ODYSSEY

 

Truk Lagoon is a haven not olny for the wrecks but the favorable lagoon conditions for diving and tropical tempatures. The height of war can readily be seen with the array of torpedoes, guns of different caliber, huge artillery shells, tanks, trucks and bull dozers. Other artifacts of dishware, shoes, medicine bottles, sake bottles, facemask and items are spread amongst the debris. The ships holds, bridge aera and propellers are not the only places to explore, the Japanese submarine and plane wrecks are all part of the attractions of Truk. These underwater wrecks portray a past war standing still but you also witness the beautiful coral and marine life that have made these wrecks their home and giving them life once again.
