Ancient Mysteries & Local Life
One of Pohnpei’s most iconic landmarks is Nan Madol—a centuries-old city built on tidal canals and often called the “Venice of the Pacific.” Massive basalt structures rise from the sea, hinting at a once-powerful royal dynasty whose legacy is still being uncovered.
To experience island life today, share a shell of sakau, a traditional ceremonial drink made from the local pepper plant. Served at gatherings and sakau bars, this calming brew offers visitors a unique and authentic taste of Pohnpeian culture.
