About Walung Drop Off

A wall subject to fast, strong currents. The list of marine life ushered in is prolific. From barracuda and large jacks to rainbow runners. The reef top has an abundance of coral. There are even cleaning stations for the wrasse and barracuda. The site lies at Buoy 29 and 30 and its drop-off is very popular around the Kosrae area. The walls are sheer and colourful - the boat trip there is as breathtaking as the dive with its beaches, rugged coastlines and lush forests!
