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.

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!!!

Definitely recommended!!
An incredibly beautiful week on the Black Pearl!! Although the weather was very mixed, the crew got the best out of it for us and we did super nice varied dives. The food was great and the equipment on the boat was ideal for me.

Great holiday in Palau
My husband and I had a great holdiay on the boat. Our dive guide is very experienced and planned the dives very well. The bumphead parrot fish spawning is definitely a highlight. The boat is very modern and comfortable.

Luxury boat
A great week. Exceptional boat, attentive crew, good diving organization. Very nice diving destination, incredibly full of fish (but with less diversity than Indonesia and the Philippines, even though they are very close)

Amazing week on the black pearl
By far the best live-aboard I've been to so far and it's all down to the crew, from the cruise director through the dive guides and everyone else on board who really work hard to make sure everyone is happy. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, diving is very easy from the dhingies and there was always a lot of good food ready after diving. I usually like to complain but it was really hard to do this week :)
