Useful information

Palau

Best time for diving
Late November - early June, as these months have the best weather and best visibility. Palau can dive any time throughout the year, the rains are heavier from July to early October which reduces the visibility to an average of 15m and can cause weather conditions that may interfere with diving. Manta rays mating is from December to March (which is also considered as the "high season"). The grey reef shark mating is usually happen between February to March. Turtles breeding is from April to July.

About temperatures
Air : lovely tropical weather range from 27°C - 30°C year round
Sea : between 28°C - 29°C year round without much variation

Wetsuit Recommendation
We recommend a dive Skin or 3 mm.

Diver requirement
We advice recommend to have at least an AOW certification ideally combined with Nitrox. As most of the dive sites are over 18 meters and strong currents can happen.

Vaccinations
Guests arriving from countries which are affected by Cholera or Yellow Fever must show proof of immunisations upon arrival.

Money Matters
The local currency of Palau is the US Dollar (USD). The majority of established hotels, shops and restaurants accept major credit cards or traveler's' cheques. Occasionally smaller, family-run business will only accept cash. There are several US operated banks and plenty of ATMs so cash is readily accessible although the rate of exchange is very poor. Therefore, guests are advised to change money prior to arrival in Palau.

Ban on Sunscreens
On 1st January 2020, Palau introduced a ban on sunscreens which contain ingredients that are toxic to reefs. This directive means it is illegal to sell reef-toxic sunscreen products and also illegal to bring any into the Republic of Palau; any prohibited reef-toxic sunscreen shall be confiscated upon entry into the Republic of Palau.

Reef-toxic sunscreens are those which containoxybenzone, octylmethoxycinnamate, octocrylene, 4-methyl-benzylidene camphor, triclosan, methyl paraben, ethyl paraben, butyl paraben, benzyl paraben, phenoxythanol, or other chemical ingredients that are considered harmful to the marine environment.

Drones
The use of drones is allowed as long as the drone has been registered and a permit obtained from the Palau National Aviation Administration office in advance. Permits are free of charge and usually take 2-3 working days to process. Drone registration can be submitted online via the Palau Visitors Authority website.

We have finished diving in Palau The diving was really amazing, better even than I remembered it from 8 years ago. I think it beat anything else we have done in the combination of what you see and comfort.

非常棒,船员很认真负责,餐食是亮点,每天都吃很多好吃的,潜水非常棒,我最爱"德国海峡"那个潜点,水母湖也和传说中一样特别值得一去,总之满分好评,不怕你骄傲!哈哈哈

This was an excellent live-aboard! We went there in early 2014, Only 10 guest onboard. Lots of space, nice sun deck with hammocks, good dive platform. Food was excellent. Some of the best I have had on a live-aboard. The Hawaiian chief prepared lots of delicious meals. Onboard there was generally 4 dives a day, very good visibility, no current at all. And the Jelly fish lake, Blue holes & Olong Channel were amazing. A lot of large fishes at Olong Channel and Peleliu, at German Channel, there was 2 manta rays swam around us for the entire 60mins dive! Really wonderful trip!!
