Highlights
Built with divers' needs in mind, M/Y Black Pearl offers week-long itineraries to Palau, one of the world's top diving destinations. 12 guest cabins cater to 24 guests. Each cabin features twin beds, ensuite bathrooms, AC, and a safety deposit box. The new 200x210cm latex mattresses with 300-thread count Egyptian cotton will submerge guests in luxury and comfort.
Social areas include a large sun deck with beach beds, tanning benches, a dedicated camera setup area, a lounge with a TV, and a 6-person whirlpool. The outdoor terrace at the back of the boat is ideal for a sundowner to reflect on the day’s adventures.
The M/Y Black Pearl features a comfortable dive deck fitted with anti-slip flooring, a designated camera maintenance area with a low-pressure air gun and work table, and 2 fully-kitted 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. Inexperienced and beginner-level divers may find some dives quite challenging and may be asked by the Cruise Director to skip dives unsuitable for their diving experience level.

Amazing experience on Black Pearl Liveaboard
We had an incredible experience aboard the Black Pearl liveaboard! From the very beginning, the organization was excellent — the team provided super helpful checklists and clear information before departure, which made everything smooth and stress-free. The boat itself is absolutely stunning — huge, comfortable, and beautifully designed with plenty of relaxing areas to unwind between dives. The crew and staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming; we felt completely at home from day one. The route was perfectly planned, offering a great mix of dive sites and breathtaking scenery. Most importantly, safety was always a top priority — we felt well looked after at all times, both above and below the water. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a professional, safe, and unforgettable diving adventure!

Spawning at shark city brow up my mind
Some diving sites are amazingly beautiful, especially the check dive for snapper and other big fishes ball’s spawning at shark city, which is totally brow up my mind, with many bull sharks hunting around, just so many things to see at the same time and don’t know where to eye on

We had a great week on a lovely boat in a beautiful location, and some stellar dives with strong currents.
The best single experience was the first reef hook - beautiful. The best 50 minute dive was the morning of the last day, in Ulong Channel - terrific drift. The beach barbecue was also lovely.
- Recommended for
- Reef hooks! We had not used them before.. Bathrooms in the cabin were lovely.. Fresh fruits and vegetables at the meals, plus the oatmeal before the first dive..

Super fun and enjoyable Liveaboard experience
Boat is very well upkept, very spacious, new and clean. The jacuzzi is the best after dives. Staff are all so friendly. Dives were guided professionally, briefings were detailed and we always felt safe to be in the group. Another highlight is on the last day when we finished all the dives. Staff set up inflatables for us to play. We had a lot of fun!!!
