Blue Lagoon Dive
Shop in Chuuk (Truk Lagoon) opened its doors to divers on November 13,
1973. Since then the humble shack has grown into a modern
dive shop that provides full service to divers looking for adventure on
the historic wrecks of Truk. Gradvin Aisek carries the legacy of
his father, Kimiuo who opened the underwater world of Truk Lagoon to the
world. His experience and knowledge of the wrecks has given divers
an opportunity to enjoy "the World's Greatest Wreck
Diving."
Located on the grounds of the Blue Lagoon
Dive Resort, formerly known as the Truk Continental Hotel, the air
conditioned dive shop provides sales, service and classes. A fleet of fast
dive boats and knowledgeable guides provide easy access to the wrecks
and allows divers the freedom to dive in small, personal groups on
wrecks of their choice. This is where you will find some if
the best diving in Micronesia.
The new dive shop
and resort, wholly owned and operated by the Aisek family of Tonoas
Island (formerly Dublon), occupy the most prime property on the southern tip of Weno
Island (formerly Moen, in the village of Neauwo. The coconut-studded
spacious grounds include the island's best beaches and sunset views.
The hotel's 54 rooms have undergone a multi-phase $3.2 million renovation
program and the hotel's dock provides easy
departures for trips to the wrecks.
When you experience the mystery and excitement of
the Fujikawa Maru with its beautiful soft coral growth and schools of
colorful fish or descend into the cargo holds of the Sankisan and San
Francisco Maru you will understand why the license plates in Chuuk call
it "Divers Haven." With over 40 wrecks to dive you
will want to extend your trip!
