Of the various wrecks in the Chuuk lagoon, this is the one nearest the surface, close enough to be enjoyed by those who can only snorkel, not dive.

Since I am not a certified SCUBA diver, I cannot go to the majority of wrecks in Chuuk lagoon. But Suzuki Maru is in shallow water and can be enjoyed with only snorkel gear. There is no current, so I didn't even need fins! -- just do the breaststroke. The wreck has become covered with coral and is hardly recognizeable as a ship; but like all tropical reefs, it has attracted a diversity of colorful fishes. Since I was not staying in a dive hotel, I went with the Chuuk Visitor's Bureau -- the trip included the Suzuki Maru and a sunken Zero, both at snorkel depth, then a visit to the old Japanese base on Tonoas Island. Chuuk markets itself primarily as a dive destination, but it is possible for non-divers like me to find interesting things to do.
