What To Expect
Milky Way
This is a flexible itinerary, and not all attractions listed are guaranteed to be visited in one day. We will choose the best spots on the day to ensure safety and the best experience. Milky Way Lagoon is famous for its smooth, mineral-rich white mud and calm turquoise water. Here you can swim and relax in the sheltered lagoon, apply the natural mud mask, and rinse off in the sea for a refreshing feeling. Your guide will share local tips and help you enjoy this unique “spa in nature” experience, with plenty of time for photos. Please note: The exact sites visited may vary depending on tide conditions, weather, sea conditions, and shared boat/crew arrangements.
Big Drop-off
This is a flexible itinerary, and not all attractions listed are guaranteed to be visited in one day. We will choose the best spots on the day to ensure safety and the best experience. Big Drop-Off is one of Palau’s most iconic underwater sights and is often considered a top highlight of the “Seven Underwater Wonders of Palau.” Just a short distance from the reef edge, the seafloor suddenly plunges into deep blue water, creating a dramatic wall-like view. Please note: The exact sites visited may vary depending on tide conditions, weather, sea conditions, and shared boat/crew arrangements.

Day in Palau

5.00This is probably one of the best tours you can take in Palau, definitely the best offered on Viator. No other tours have you catch your own lunch and have it prepared on a private island! The guides cook your fish for you, it’s delicious. Then after you visit some amazing snorkeling sites, including a sunken Japanese ship. The guides are so friendly and helpful, I highly recommend this tour to anyone.

5.00We had a great experience with this tour. We had a fishing experience in the morning, which was then barbequed foe our lunch. We then went to snorkel at Giant Clam City and the Japanese shipwreck site. We joined the tour for the second day (for an additional fee) and went to the Milky Way, Blue Coral Reef and Shark City. Our tour guide was George and he was wonderful! He helped us take some wonderful photos/videos and was overall very helpful.
