A visit to the Pohnpeian cultural centers is a must for anyone wishing to experience traditional Pohnpeian life. Each center has a distinctive program and performances include traditional dancing, singing, music, ceremonial sakau making, handicraft arts, and food preparation. The village shops specialize in handicrafts and popular items include carvings of sharks, fish, dolphins and canoes.
When it comes to relaxing, try sakau, the numbing local drink which is used in ceremonies and also sold in bars.
