Palau Micronesia 

Palau has become a sought-after destination for divers owing to the rich diversity of its marine life, which boasts more than 1,300 species of fish, 700 types of coral, and a myriad of other sea creatures. Another significant draw is the UNESCO World Heritage Rock Islands Southern Lagoon, consisting of more than 400 limestone islands and islets surrounded by pristine water, imbued with a tranquil sense of serenity.

Palau is a diver’s paradise with unique and breathtaking dive sites such as the Blue Hole, Jellyfish Lake, and German Channel. Experience the thrill of diving alongside pelagic giants like sharks and mantas, as well as exploring coral gardens and caverns. With Pearl Fleet’s M/Y Black Pearl liveaboard, indulge in luxury accommodations and personalized service while diving some of the world’s most pristine waters.

The incredibly varied WWII wrecks, which range from sunken Japanese Zero planes to huge cargo ships, all of which are carpeted in hard and soft corals. These underwater museums house a trove of artefacts, from gun platforms to discarded bullets, providing an eerie insight into the past. A huge abundance of marine life also shelters among the wrecks meaning divers are treated to the best of both worlds, be it schools of jacks and snapper or elusive leopard sharks.
