Diving the WWII Wrecks of Chuuk (Truk) Lagoon [Part 1]

The Blue World dive team travels to Chuuk Atoll (sometimes known as Truk) in the Federated States of Micronesia to dive the shipwrecks and plane wrecks resulting from a World War II battle in 1944. The sheer number of wrecks make Chuuk the "wreck diving capital of the world." It's a wreck diving adventure, and the first in a series of five episodes coming from our Chuuk adventure. The wrecks explored in this segment are the Kiyosumi Maru, the Mitsubishi G4M "Betty Bomber" airplane, and the Yamagiri Maru. Special thanks to the amazing Truk Odyssey liveaboard in Chuuk. If you want to dive Chuuk, we can't say enough great things about this vessel and the crew! https://trukodyssey.com/ Also check out the website of Holger Buss who makes incredibly cool 3D models of wrecks all over the world. https://dive3d.eu/ Check out our video of a tour of the Truk Odyssey liveaboard on @BlueWorldplus : https://youtu.be/YaCJumGjM4E WARNING!
