Divers can now discover some of the world's best wrecks by staying at the well-established and family-run Truk Stop Hotel whilst diving with Truk Lagoon's newest and most professional dive centre.
Set against the picture-perfect backdrop of the majestic Truk Lagoon, the Truk Stop Hotel is ideally located near the centre of Weno, within easy walking distance of major stores, markets and all main activities on Weno Island.
The Truk Lagoon Dive Centre is located on the grounds of the Truk Stop Hotel operating from their own private jetty adjacent to the dive shop. This is rated by many international divers as one of the best value land-based diving options around.

Chuuk Lagoon has attracted divers from virtually every corner of the world. Marine archaeologists have located 41 World War II shipwrecks, referred to recently as The Ghost Fleet, athough as many as 65 ships may be quietly resting at the bottom of the lagoon. A majority of the wrecks are located on the windward side of Tonoas Island, and between Tonoas and Fefan islands. Another concentration of wrecks can be found near Uman Island. The dive centre generally visits around 20 of the most popular dive sites plus other interesting sites upon request or when conditions are right. Most dive sites are located within a 25 minute boat ride from the dive shop.

The Truk Stop Hotel offers a full line of amenities to guests who expect an international standard of comfort and service, including an award-winning restaurant, café & bar.
The latest addition to the Truk Stop is the internationally recognized Hard Wreck Café & Bar, which is often frequented by plenty of colourful characters and considered by virtually anyone who's been to Chuuk to be the island's premier "watering hole".

Late-model car rentals & local tour activities can also be arranged through reception.

Truk Stop Hotel offers a total of 23 first-rate guest rooms consisting of 13 deluxe rooms, 6 ocean view rooms plus 2 executive rooms and two presidential suites. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning and ceiling fans, private balconies, refrigerators, telephone service, and full-colour cable television with CNN and ESPN International. The main difference between the deluxe & ocean view rooms is, of course, the view.
All ocean view rooms have west-facing balconies where a beautiful sunset can be enjoyed each evening. Generally, all the rooms are the same size, however, the ocean view rooms are also decorated and finished to a higher standard.
Although Truk's isolated location is one of its attractions, you can keep in touch with the rest of the world using the hotel's fax and email facilities.

The Truk Stop dive centre boasts three customised 30-foot dive boats, located by the adjacent jetty.

These new vessels offers a comfortable ride to the dive sites and is equipped with emergency oxygen, first aid kits, drinking water and a fresh water camera-rinse bucket.
