Blue Corner Palau

★★★★★ (1,329)

Blue Corner is considered the number 1 of Palau dive sites. Often strong currents, so a Reef hook is strongly recommended. Incredible fish and coral life. Best visibility on outgoing current. Adrenaline rush guaranteed!

13 different species of sharks have been seen here, just beyond the reef wall. Friendly napoleon wrasses, tons of schooling fish including Jacks, Tunas and Snappers.
