But if you want the better equipment and gas support for the deeper wrecks, go with Trukstop Hotel.

Can anyone tell me when the rainy season is? I am assuming that it doesn't really matter for the diving but it might make a more enjoyable trip if we can sit out in the sun between dives. I am also thinking that there will be a couple of us doing photography and/or video so if we have some sun the results might be just a touch better.
When we came in, I talked to a couple of ladies on the dock who were going on your trip. They asked me about the diving and they got quite apprehensive of the dive profiles as I described them. How did it work out?
Worked out great. We all had a fabulous time. Now trying to figure out when im going back.
I'm looking at booking on the odyssey for August 2011 - should I be booking my flights now as well (I doubt it), or 6 months out, or some other time frame?
Are there any recommended guidebooks to read if planning a trip to Chuuk?
If you're going to travel straight thru...and considering how much you're paying for the overall trip....I highly recommend you spend at least one full day, either on Guam or Truk, to get acclimated.
