In February 1944, U.S. aircraft carriers launched a surprise attack on a remote South Pacific harbor housing several Japanese transport ships. The World War II offensive, called “Operation Hailstorm,” dealt a devastating blow to the Imperial fleet, sinking over 45 ships including armed cargo ships, huge tankers, small destroyers, and even a submarine. Several planes were also sent to their final resting place, the tranquil ocean floor of Chuuk (“Truk”) Lagoon. Fifty years later, these relics of war are magnificent reefs housing countless tropical fish, anemones and macro critters, with antiaircraft guns and tank turrets now cloaked in plumes of colorful soft corals.
It is truly a wreck diver’s paradise, and we will explore the most beautiful sites in the lagoon including the Nippo Maru, Fujikawa Maru and Fumitzuki Destroyer. Tanks, tractors, trucks, planes, artillery shells, dinnerware and sake bottles are just a fraction of the artifacts awaiting your discovery in the holds of these sunken ships.
