Blue Corner Palau

★★★★★ (1,262)

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.

German Channel (★4.4)

One of the Top three places to visit in Palau and THE spot to dive with manta rays here. German Channel is an artificial channel created in 1908 by German Colonial Rulers. Mantas now use this shortcut into the lagoon.
