Workation in Kolonia: the essentials
Pohnpei's main town is a coastal settlement of about 6,000 on one of the wettest inhabited islands on earth, which accounts for the rainforest-covered mountains behind it. Remains of the Spanish and German colonial periods stand in town, and Sokehs Rock rises just across the water. Kolonia was the national capital of Micronesia until 1989, when the government moved to nearby Palikir, and it is still where the shops and services are. The big draw is Nan Madol, a UNESCO-listed ruined city of basalt built on a reef on the far side of the island. The airport is about 2 km away, on island-hopper routes across the Pacific.
