It has always been a dream to travel to Micronesia, but it’s a whole other story to get the opportunity to go and dive the biggest graveyard of WWII ships in the world.

The place I am speaking of is Chuck Lagoon of the Federated States of Micronesia, located about 1,000km southeast from Guam on the Pacific Ocean.

These are the many islets that are scattered within the vast lagoon.

This photo was shot with my DJI Phantom 3 in Thailand, Krabi in 2016. It’s possible to get to the Sirithan Beach (sandy island) walking from the mainland (more right) in the water. The maximum depth in the most shallow path is waist-high. A little inconvenience totally worth it because the beach is almost empty and feels like a paradise.

Partly cloudy, strong wind from the south and always a stunning view behind the next corner. This is South Africa!
