Bikini Atoll,
Marshall Islands
17 - 29 Sep 2025

Explore the unique shipwrecks of this "bucket list" destination.

Bikini Lagoon is undisputedly ranked at the top of most serious wreck diver’s bucket-list. Incredibly remote and undeniably unique, nowhere else on earth will you be able to dive such a unique collection of historic battleships, destroyers and submarines, plus the world famous USS Saratoga aircraft carrier with its 270 metre flight deck, plane wrecks and endless opportunities for those who want to venture inside!


Bikini Atoll is part of the Republic of the Marshall Islands, surrounded by the crystal-blue waters of the Pacific. It is the final resting place for some of the most significant warships in history, including the USS Saratoga, USS Arkansas (battleship), USS Lamson and Anderson (destroyers), the USS Apogon and Pilotfish (submarines) and - among others - the IJN Nagato, Admiral Yamamoto's flagship of Japan's Imperial Navy during WWII.
