Join UnderseaX on our sixth gay and lesbian dive trip to
mind-blowing Palau, home of drift diving with reef hooks and the
extraordinary hold-on-to-your mask Blue Corner. An exotic
former U.S. Trust Territory rich in Micronesian culture and WWII history, Palau offers
electric diving with magnificent walls and drop offs,
huge sea fans, and lots of underwater action.
We'll dive all of our favorite sites from past trips: Blue Corner, Ulong Channel, Big Dropoff, Siaes Corner and lots more. An optional diving and land tour will be available to Peleliu, and on our last day we will kayak among the stunning Rock Islands.
See
why Palau is considered one of the world's top diving destinations and why we keep going back!
