What Divers Say
★★★★★
"I have been diving for more than thirty years and been on numerous liveaboards and I can honestly say that this is very possibly the best liveaboard trip that I have ever been on."
★★★★★
"The wrecks themselves are amazing - second to none. The crew made the trip awesome. The boat crew worked so hard with limited resources in Micronesia to make the trip comfortable."
★★★★★
"This was my first liveaboard experience so I did not have any expectations, but I thoroughly enjoyed every part. It was very well organised and the crew worked very hard."
Common Questions
Is it safe to dive at Bikini Atoll? ▼
Yes. Residual radiation to which divers are exposed from the Bikini Atoll shipwrecks is negligible and poses no significant risk, as long as you do not try to take any souvenirs. Removing items from the wrecks is hazardous and forbidden.
What certification do I need? ▼
Bikini Atoll is not suitable for recreational divers, even those certified to 40 metres. The minimum certification is TDI Advanced Nitrox and Decompression Procedures, PADI Tec 45, or equivalent (45+ metres). Rebreather divers need TDI Air Diluent-45 metres / Helitrox Decompression-45 metres, or equivalent. All divers must have at least 100 logged dives and previous deep wreck experience. Most wrecks start around 50 metres.
How do I get there? ▼
Our Bikini Atoll itineraries are built around United Airlines flight schedules from Honolulu, Hawaii, which serves both Kwajalein and Majuro. Because luggage may not always travel on the same flight, we strongly recommend arriving in the Marshall Islands at least two days before your liveaboard departure. Departure tax from Kwajalein and Majuro is currently 20 USD.
What wetsuit and exposure protection do I need? ▼
Bring exposure protection suited to extended bottom times and prolonged decompression stops. Either a 3mm or 5mm full-length suit is suitable. A 3mm may be enough if you do not feel the cold; a 5mm helps reduce the risk of injury from sharp objects on the wrecks and gives more thermal cover for longer dives.
