Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Diving
Fujikawa Maru Wreck
This signature wreck illustrates the lagoon’s maritime history. Diving depends on certification, site and conditions; wreck penetration must never be improvised.
Walk
Weno
Weno is the gateway to Chuuk Lagoon. A guided visit reveals viewpoints and island history beyond the underwater excursions.
Heritage
Tonoas
The island retains traces of its role in the Pacific War. A boat excursion and local visit connect history, villages and lagoon scenery.
