Truk Odyssey

Join Fathoms Magazine as it steps back in time to dive the ghost fleet of Truk Lagoon. This is the world’s best shipwreck destination with historic WWII wrecks to explore.  Enter the holds of these relics and explore tanks, trucks, bicycles, guns and skeletons.  You’ll see an abundance of incredible tropical fish, anemones, gorgonians and eagle rays, who have made these wrecks their home.  The Truk Odyssey is one of the world’s top live aboard dive vessels. All cabins have private ensuite facilities and air-conditioning controls. Ethan Gordon, world-renowned photo journalist and Fathoms’ editor, will lead this trip. He is well known for his ability as a trip leader and teacher of photography.  To learn more about Ethan, please visit www.ethangordon.com.

Cocos Island
Vessel: Undersea Hunter

Hands down, visiting Cocos Islands is every serious diver’s dream.  For the past 3 years, Fathoms has chartered back to back trips to Cocos and Malpelo with great success.  Experiencing the true grandeur of Cocos first hand, we have decided that a Cocos only itinerary for 2008 is time well spent. Aboard the Undersea Hunter, guests will enjoy the vast conveniences of a capable and well-proven research vessel with a maximum capacity of 14 passengers.  This 10 day itinerary includes seven days of action packed diving with an abundance of hammerheads, silkies, silvertips, whitetips, mantas, eaglerays, dolphins, schooling fish and more!  The exceptional staff onboard will guarantee an unforgettable trip and will have you begging for more.  We recommend that you extend your Costa Rican experience by a few days and tour the rest of the natural wonders on the main land.  Want a re-breather trip?  We are providing a special re-breather option for those who want to dive in silence.  Please call for more information

Your vessel, the Undersea Hunter, is a rare hybrid, combining the large working platform and powerful machinery of a functional work boat with the comfortable interior of a modern yacht. Price includes transfers and Nitrox. And we've picked THE best time or the year to be there. July/August are the months of choice so we maintain this slot each year and only book then.

This place can be tough diving. Lots of currents and very little protection from wind and seas. It's wet and wild but well worth it.
