Palau - a Marine Wonder

Travel to one of the most desirable destinations on earth to marvel in extraordinary underwater beauty. 

 Journey to Palau in the southwestern part of Micronesia and you’ll witness unrivaled scenery.   

Whether you’re a nature lover, snorkeling or scuba diving enthusiast, you won’t find a better place to enjoy the wonders of marine life than in the waters around Palau.  As you explore their depths, you’ll be among the privileged few to capture the magnificence of shipwrecks, corals and impressive varieties of fish.  You’ll see exotic species not found anywhere else in the world.  You’ll observe as many of them congregate at the location where three major oceans meet.  And at several hundred meters beneath the surface, you’ll encounter tunnels that lead to gorgeous lakes filled with unique jelly fish and giant clams.             

Palau is also famous for its Rock Islands, a group of land masses covered in verdant foliage.  They’re ideal for relaxing, spending the evening or having lunch.  The crystal quality of its surf makes it the perfect base from where to admire sting rays and small sharks.  Several spots like Blue Corner, Ngmelis drop-off and Blue Hole are a must for avid divers.  But if you’re just looking to kick back, opt for a boat tour around the islands or sink into a cozy lounge chair along the silky sands. 

While in Palau, hire a tour guide to take you through charming villages and jungles.  Spend time discovering stones and monoliths left behind by early Palauans.  Visit impressive venues like the Belau National Museum one of the oldest in Micronesia.  Observe exhibits reflecting the history of the region and marvel in the intricacy of the artifacts. 

Shop for exquisite handicrafts and savor the superb gastronomies of the Pacific.  In Palau, the majority of restaurants offer al fresco dining and service befitting of Micronesian royalty.  Dine on fresh seafood and fine Palauan vintage wines.  Try different eateries such as Ben’s Kabayan for Filipino cuisine or Tahji for excellent Indian fare.      

This amazing part of the world is blessed with a tropical climate throughout the year.  It rains occasionally during the months of July and October but typhoons are a rare occurrence.

Don’t wait.  Treat yourself to a most unusual getaway.
