Alii or Ran annim visitor ! *(hello)

This page contains information on travelling to Palau and Truk Lagoon. It started as a repository for all the information I gathered on Palau and Chuuk on the internet.
Since I'll be scubadiving in Micronesia in 2007 I figured some information on the region and the diving would be useful.
Hopefully you will find the same information useful for planning your trip to the magical islands in Micronesia!
