Ever wonder what the tiny coral islands of the Pacific look like? Beyond the touristic heavy hitters like Hawaii, Fiji and Tahiti lie several chains of tiny, remote specks of land, each home to its own people, culture and history. Expensive to get to and sparse in "modern conveniences," the "Many [Small] Islands" of the northern Pacific will lay out the welcome mat to you in the Brakey's "Exploring Micronesia," a fun, informative and perfectly contextualized hour-long production which will make you feel like you've been there, and definitely makes you want to come back. Rich in both eye-popping underwater photography and above-the-waves looks at the people, cultures and unique history of the area, Exploring Micronesia does just that -- in just the right-sized bite to whet YOUR travel appetite!! This product is DEFINITELY WORTH IT. If you're at all curious about this part of the world, snap up Exploring Micronesia, and hop across the pacific from island paradise to underwater wonderland -- and back in time to plan your REAL trip there!!

Not very helpful, too much underwater life, which as a diver I love but this was not what I was hoping to find.

We are planning a trip to Yap & Palau, so I got this dvd for my husband for his birthday to give him an idea of what we would be seeing. It's not a life-changing, amazing, outstanding dvd but it does give you an overall impression of the 4 islands. I thought it was interesting that the island with the least amount of footage--or so it seemed to me--was Palau; surely Palau is the most popular and more famous destination?

Anyway, watching the DVD did the trick--we are more psyched than ever to go!
