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.

Wonderful diving trip in Palau
Excellent trip aboard the Black Pearl, Momo and his team are very kind. We felt comfortable and the boat is big enough that we weren't on top of each other constantly. The food is varied and of good quality (have fresh salad for example). It is true that the boat does not move much and that the majority of the trips are made by dinggy (10-15'l. The real difference with an operator on the island is the advantage of being the first/last on site outside the peak hours of the dive centers. Momo will be your first choice as a guide to finding big while Jeffry has a keen eye for finding macro. Great team overall!

Outstanding Liveaboard in Palau on the Black Pearl.
This was my first liveaboard, and it was outstanding. I will definitely be going again. The full crew of the Black Pearl provided excellent customer service, in particular Jefrey and Anthony, the dive masters who worked with me. They were knowledgeable about the dive sites and the marine life as well as skilled divers who provided additional education on scuba diving, dive equipment, and other topics. I will recommend this destination and company to others.

Black Pearl is awesome!
The crew takes care of your every need. If something isn't to your liking they fix it! Swimming with manta's almost every morning next to boat before you even make your first dive!

Great diving week
Very friendly staff, dives were good. Food was good but could even be better. The visit to Jelly fish lake is not needed if there are no more golden jelly fishes. Some cool extra diving activity or experience could be better organized. Overall I would definitely recommend.
