Micronesia

I especially urge friends to enjoy wonderful live-aboard adventures in the beautiful islands of Palau and on the World War II sunken wrecks of Truk Lagoon.

1) Palau

• M.V. Ocean Hunter I is 60 feet long, with three private air-conditioned double cabins.
• M.V. Ocean Hunter II is 75 feet long, with six private air-conditioned double cabins.
• The all-new 12-passenger Ocean Hunter II has joined Ocean Hunter I for Palau's great diving.
• Groups from 6 to as many as 18 persons can charter one or both vessels.
• Unlimited diving -- because you can dive directly from Ocean Hunter right onto the dive site!
