Mogethin! Hello!
Known as the mysterious isle of Stone Money, Yap is a wonderful mix of past,

 present and future, where an ancient culture exists side by side with the 21st century. Located in the Western Caroline Islands, Yap is considered the most traditional corner of Micronesia. Opened for tourism in 1989, Yap offers a unique glimpse into Pacific Island culture. Centuries old Stone Paths meander through lush tropical flora leading to thatched villages where traditional Men's Houses stand lined with huge disks of Stone Money. More recently Yap has been recognized as a world class dive destination where the magnificent Manta Rays of Yap appear daily. Skin Diver Magazine calls Yap "the most interesting island in Micronesia" and rates Yap as one of its top 3 dive sites!

Visit Yap…
…a land of history, tradition and culture, hidden in the confines of the Pacific awaits those with a sense of adventures!
