About this trip
Truk Lagoon Rec•Tec 2028 - Week 1
Dive the ghost fleet of Truk Lagoon. Dozens of WWII Japanese ships were sunk by US forces in 1944 amassing one of the most concentrated population of shipwrecks in the world. We will be exploring the wrecks from aboard the M/V Odyssey; a premier liveaboard dive operator. This two week expedition begins with the "Rec" week with wrecks in the 90'-150' range. The Deep or Tec Week will highlight the wrecks in the 130'-200' range. This is a dream itinerary for the most discerning wreck diver. Opt in on both trips or select one or the other. See separate trip listing for Week 2; Tec Week.
M/V Odyssey
Since 1999, the Odyssey and her highly experienced crew have been taking avid divers in the lap of luxury to dive the wrecks of Truk. The 133' vessel is tricked out to meet the most discerning divers needs. The luxury spacious staterooms with individual climate control, the delicious plentiful food served in the large glassed dining room will not disappoint. Odyssey is a perfectly designed dive platform with everything the recreational and technical diver could ask for including a diver lift from the water to the swim deck; no climbing ladders!
