Chuuk Lagoon, once called Truk, is a large lagoon ringed by a barrier reef, and the graveyard of a Japanese fleet sunk in Operation Hailstone in February 1944. More than 60 ships and aircraft lie in shallow, clear water, many still coated in coral and carrying their cargoes of trucks, tanks and bottles. It is one of the greatest wreck-diving sites in the world.
