Pohnpei on a distance. Smooth sailing during summer days.

How much more glassy can it get? This was shot around 10 miles off shore.

Fishing does get good!

Pohnpei Hang Out!

Nan Madol.
The usual tour to Nan Madol leaves our dock based on the Pohnpei tides for that day taking you for a boat ride around 1/3 of the island of Pohnpei, from the Northern most point of the island to the east tip of Pohnpei where Nan Madol is located.
Our first stop is at Manta Road. On the location around 15 minutes away from our dock we can swim, snorkel and scuba dive with the manta rays. On most days you will be able to witness one to ten manta rays feeding on plankton in schools of other bait fish, trevallys, small sharks and other reef fish. The waters at Manta Road are usually very calm but currents can get strong. The manta rays usually aggregate during low tide so we try to always be there 30 minutes before peak low tide.
Between Manta Road and Nan Madol we will do a few more stop at scenic places to snorkel or stop at a unspoiled island with a beautiful beach to have lunch while we wait for the tides to come up in order to be able to enter Nan Madol by boat (we can only access Nan Madol by the water under a mid high to high tide).
From there you should have enough time to explore this mysterious site before we go back to our hotel.
This trip can last around 5 to 6 hours from the time we leave dock.
The Pohnpei Surf Club will provide for this trip drinking water, mask and fins (but if you have your own we suggest you also bring it), Nan Madol entrance fee (around $7) a snack (one of the following, banana bread, cookies, bananas or coconuts). We highly recommend guests bring some extra food. Take out tour lunch can be ordered at PCR Restaurant. Please make sure to order your lunch by the night before or ask our staff to order for you when you book your tour.
Bring sun block, bathing suit and any water toys you might want to use during this trip. You will get wet so prepare accordingly.
The price for this tour is $95 per person and we need a minimum of 3 guests to get this trip going. If you are on your own please check with our reservation desk as we might have more guests signed up for the trip on the desired day.
