Likiep Wall

Wotje Atoll - WWII Wrecks

Food on Likiep and Wotje is traditional and lagoon-based, centred on fresh tuna, reef fish and shellfish cooked with coconut, taro and breadfruit. The rare landing or expedition brings imported provisions, but most meals are genuinely local, with coconut crab and lobster as seasonal highlights. Stays are in simple guesthouses or on an expedition vessel; safe drinking water should be carried, as there is no tourist infrastructure on these remote northern atolls.

Likiep and Wotje are remote northern atolls in the Ratak chain, visited only by occasional liveaboard and a handful of adventure divers each year. Likiep Wall drops into crystal-clear water over pristine coral, with grey reef sharks, turtles and the possible manta ray, while Wotje holds several Japanese ships and planes from the 1940s, now shallow, coral-encrusted debris rich in fish life. Both atolls offer a sense of true exploration, with minimal infrastructure, traditional island life and reefs that see almost no dive pressure. Reached by Air Marshall Islands flights or a northern-atoll expedition liveaboard, Likiep and Wotje are for self-sufficient divers chasing untouched Pacific walls and WWII history.

Likiep & Wotje Atolls

Likiep and Wotje are reached by Air Marshall Islands flights from Majuro or by northern-atoll expedition liveaboard. Both atolls are remote with minimal infrastructure; Likiep Wall and the Wotje WWII wrecks are accessed by small boats from the island settlements.
