Kosrae beckons the underwater adventurer. More than 50 dive sites have been identified by local diving experts. Each has been marked with a buoy to prevent improper anchoring.
Beautiful hard coral gardens punctuate the eastern side of the island. On the west, the gardens give way to plunging walls. Sharks, dogtooth tuna, barracuda schools and other exciting ocean citizens cal all be encountered along the reef's edge.
A rainbow of colours can be found in the forests of tiny Christmas tree invertebrates that ppulate the large corals. Schools of eagle rays are commonly found at many of the sites. Kosrae is also known for its extremely clear, warm water tha allows visibility of 100 to 200 feet to be the norm for the scuba buff.
