Laiap is an island located east of Nahlap Island on the southern end of Pohnpei. The island is owned by the Christian family and is another great picnic spot for those looking for an island to spend the weekend on. There is a two-story cement house on the island, the 2nd story is available for guests to stay in during day trip or overnight stays. The island has plenty of open space and is well shaded by trees. The island’s north side is where the nice swimming spot is, it starts of shallow and slopes deeper as you go further out. The surrounding reefs are great for snorkeling and paddling, however be aware of strong currents and undertows especially when swimming on the southern and eastern sides of the island.
