Built with divers’ needs in mind, the Black Pearl Explorer offers week-long itineraries to Palau, one of the world’s top diving destinations. 12 guest cabins cater to 24 guests. Each air conditioned cabin features twin beds and ensuite bathrooms. The liveaboard has a comfortable dive deck fitted with anti-slip flooring, a designated camera maintenance area with a low-pressure air gun and work table, and two diving skiffs.

Palau is known for having some of the best diving in the world, with a huge variety of marine life, deep drop-offs, wrecks, and cave systems. Itineraries visit some of Palau’s most notable dive sites, including Blue Holes and Blue Corner. The cruise also includes visiting the stunning Jellyfish Lake for a memorable snorkeling session among hundreds of harmless jellyfish. The Black Pearl doesn’t require many logged dives; however, divers should be comfortable diving in currents to join this trip, as these can be unpredictable and quite strong in some dive sites.

The crew’s commitment to each and every guest is to provide a world class experience while cruising the pristine waters of Palau. Boasting state of the art design and functionality, comfort and top amenities are provided for a memorable stay.

While staying on the M/Y Black Pearl guests can enjoy the many facilities on board including comfortable cabin accommodation each with an ensuite bathroom, a spacious indoor dining and bar area, outdoor seating and jacuzzi on the main deck plus an outdoor bar, an entertainment salon with gym equipment and a business centre, a camera station, sunbeds and lounge seating on the sun deck.

Palau is home to more than 1,450 species of fish, 7 species of giant clams, 400 species of hard coral and 100 species of soft coral and gorgonians. Its remote location gives opportunity to pelagic encounters such as sharks, mantas, dolphins, and at times, whales. There are a variety of diving types available in Palau, from plateaus, drop offs, caverns, coral gardens, channels, and wreck diving consisting of shipwrecks from World War II.
