Scuba Diving Truk Lagoon
Diving in Truk Lagoon aboard the MV Odyssey provides one of the world’s finest diving experiences, both above and below the surface.
Truk, formally known as Chuuk since 1986, is one of the world’s best-known wreck diving destinations, thanks to dozens of World War Two wrecks scattered across 77 square miles. These ships were sunk in battle and contain many artefacts. The wrecks are covered with life, including more than 300 hard and soft corals. In addition, the outer reef features coral mountains and excellent shark diving. Divers of all experience levels are easily accommodated.

All cabins offer private en-suite facilities, air-conditioning, and access to the onboard entertainment system with over 600 movie titles. The rest of the ship, which is fully air-conditioned, features a large dining room, separate lounge, bar, and full dive deck facilities.
