Weno is the bustling capital of Chuuk State in the Federated States of Micronesia, situated on the northern edge of Chuuk Lagoon. As the main island, it is the arrival point for most travelers and the hub for diving expeditions to the lagoon's famed WWII shipwrecks. Visitors can experience a mix of local island life, with markets, small eateries, and waterfront views, while arranging dive trips to explore the sunken Japanese fleet that makes Chuuk a world-class diving destination.
