Palau
Underwater Wonder of the World

Join Undersea Expeditions on our 14th LGBTQ+ scuba expedition to mind-blowing Palau, home of drift diving with reef hooks and the extraordinary hold-on-to-your mask Blue Corner. A former U.S. Trust Territory rich in Micronesian culture and WWII history, Palau offers electrifying diving with magnificent walls and drop offs, huge sea fans, and lots of underwater action.

You'll dive all of our favorite sites from past trips: Blue Corner, Ulong Channel, Big Dropoff, Siaes Corner, Peleliu and lots more. Plus our charter is timed to the full moon snapper spawning! This expedition is suitable for strong intermediate to experienced divers who are comfortable diving in current and from a live boat. You'll need EANx and AOW certification, both of which can be earned on board. Call us to speak with an instructor about the skills you'll need to dive here safely.

See why Palau is considered one of the world's top diving destinations and why we keep going back!

Package includes:

• Seven nights on board the Palau Aggressor II in deluxe cabins, double occupancy
• Breakfast, lunch and dinner daily, plus water and hot beverages (coffee & tea)
• Five and a half days of diving: typically four dives each day
• EANx/Nitrox paid by UnderseaX

Who should go:
Strong intermediate divers (at least 50 logged dives) and advanced divers are welcome on this expedition. Beginning divers will find strong currents, drift diving, and blue-water safety stops overly challenging.
