About This Itinerary
An 8-night Truk Lagoon liveaboard aboard Pacific Master, diving the WWII Japanese Imperial Navy fleet sunk during Operation Hailstone in 1944. Ships and aircraft sit at depths from 10 to 60+ metres on a coral-encrusted seabed - a benchmark wreck-diving experience for AOW-certified divers, Nitrox strongly recommended.

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
What certification do I need? ▼
Recreational divers need PADI Advanced Open Water (or equivalent) with a minimum of 50 logged dives, and preferably the Deep Diver Speciality (40 metres). The deeper wrecks are accessible only to suitably qualified technical divers. Nitrox certification is highly recommended.
Are the wrecks safe to penetrate? ▼
Each day's diving is planned so both technical and recreational divers can explore the wrecks at their own level. Most wreck dives go straight from the main vessel onto the wreck. Torches are mandatory for anyone wishing to penetrate any of the wrecks, and no torches are available to rent on board, so please bring your own.
How deep are the wrecks? ▼
The majority of wrecks lie within recreational, no-decompression limits at depths between 18 and 40 metres, with average dive depths between 25 and 35 metres. Other wrecks sit at 40-64 metres and are only accessible to suitably qualified technical divers.
What thickness wetsuit is suitable? ▼
Water temperatures in Truk Lagoon generally range between 28 and 30C. A 3mm or 5mm full-length suit is suitable. A 3mm suit is appropriate for those who do not feel the cold or who do not intend to dive deep (30 metres plus); a 5mm suit helps wreck divers reduce the risk of injury and gives more thermal cover for longer dive times.
