Why should you go to the Federated States of Micronesia?

Lexie says, "It is a place that's so unique, and, I think, unmatched when it comes to experiencing ancient Micronesian culture. And what's interesting about the FSM is that there are four states, and each of those states is made up of either one island or over a hundred islands, split up in a lagoon. So it's very diverse and even because each state is so far apart, they have their own language and their own culture."

Lexie recommends an itinerary that focuses on Kosrae and Pohnpei, two of the four states that make up the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM)

Suggested Itinerary Overview

Duration: About one week
Route:

  • Start in Kosrae for nature, hiking, and ancient ruins
  • Continue to Pohnpei for waterfalls, diving, and the famous Nan Madol ruins
  • (Optional extensions: Yap for traditional culture during Yap Week in March, and Chuuk for advanced wreck diving in Truk Lagoon)
