Welcome to our Kwajalein, or "Kwaj" page. This is our page dedicated to Kwajalein Atoll, Marshall Islands, which was our home away from home for 6 years. Links to Kwaj stuff on this site (many questions are answered in our guestbook as well):

Photos | Links | Jobs | FAQ | Guestbook

You'll find everything you want to know about Kwajalein on this page* (or links to it anyway) including: vital statistics, info about jobs and living here, links to other Kwaj sites, and lots of fairly recent photographs.

*Note: we no longer live on Kwaj so this information is for entertainment purposes only. It is no longer necessarily up-to-date. In other words: buyer beware!

If you click on the picture to the top left you will see the full version of that photograph with labels to important spots on Kwajalein and surrounding areas.

Enjoy and thanks for visiting! ~ The Wrights

About Kwaj: Kwajalein is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, approximately half-way between Hawaii and Australia. At only 8.7 degrees North latitude (ie 8 degrees north of the equator), Kwajalein's climate is the definition of tropical. The temperature of the surrounding ocean runs in the 80s year round so the air temperature on Kwajalein rarely strays far from that range either. Tropical storms are rare, and Typhoons rarer, but they do occur.

Kwajalein Island, pictured above, is the southern-most, and biggest, island of the 100+ islands that make up Kwajalein Atoll. The United States Army Kwajalein Atoll (USAKA) and Ronald Reagan Ballistic Missile Test Site (RTS) are located on Kwajalein and several other islands in the Atoll.

More info can be found on our photos page, links page, jobs page, or frequently answered questions page.
