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.

A Premium Diving Masterpiece: 2 Weeks on the Black Pearl
My 2-week trip on the Black Pearl was outstanding, thanks to the pristine yacht and the incredibly helpful crew. The diving was spectacular, ranging from sharks and mantas to caves and vibrant schools of fish. Most importantly, the small group ratio—one guide for just 4 divers—was a game-changer, allowing us to enjoy full 60-minute dives with maximum safety. The culinary experience was also exceptional; the food was delicious, and they took great care of my dietary needs, including sugar-free options. However, a word of advice for fellow divers: Palau features some of the strongest currents I have ever encountered in my extensive diving experience. It can be quite dangerous if you aren't experienced with heavy currents, so I highly recommend being well-prepared. That said, don't hesitate to visit—just come expecting intense currents and enjoy the thrilling experience of using a reef hook; it’s truly a must-try here!

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

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!

Perfect Service and incredible dive guides.
Our first Liveaboard. Absolutely the greatest diving experience of our lives. In the past -2 months we dove French Polynesia for 15 days, Florida Keys for a week, and the Maldives for 18 days. The Black Pearl and Palau diving wins out hands down.
