Should be on everyone's bucket list!
My favourite scuba trip of my 200+ dive hobbying so far. The food on board was unbelievable in quality and variety - as good as any restaurant! Captain Jim and DMs Taffy and Jay were excellent and made every dive enjoyable regardless of the conditions. Palau should be on everyone's bucket list and you won't regret seeing it with Palau Aggressor II.

Phenomenal staff and itinerary
The best diving experience I've had. Captain Ike and his crew were exceptional. The chef had a really good cuisine and excellent variety. We went in June and the weather was a bit rainy, but we had fun because the rain didn't matter under water. I would definitely go again with this crew and on this trip because we didn't get to go to some of the sites in Pelilu and had to repeat some of the same sites.

🌊 Unforgettable Scuba Experience in Palau – A Dream Come True!
From the moment we stepped aboard, we were wrapped in warmth, hospitality, and breathtaking beauty. The staff was absolutely delightful—friendly, helpful, and always ready with a smile. Their care and expertise made our first experience with Hook diving not only safe but exhilarating. Gliding through the turquoise waters and weaving between the majestic Rock Islands felt like swimming through a living postcard. 🍽️ Ramil’s Culinary Magic Every meal was a masterpiece! Ramil knocked it out of the ballpark with vibrant colors, rich textures, and flavors that danced on the palate. Each dish was a delectable delight, presented with stunning artistry. His creations nourished both body and soul. 🧼 Editha’s Gentle Touch Editha’s joyful spirit was a constant blessing. Always smiling, she tended to our cabins with meticulous care—on her hands and knees, ensuring every detail was fresh and perfect. Her dedication brought a sense of peace and order that made our stay feel like home. 🤿 Dive Team Excellence Jim, Jun, Johnny, and Ronnie were the backbone of our underwater adventures. Their expertise and cheerful support made every dive smooth and joyful. Whether helping us gear up or guiding us through challenges, they lifted the experience—literally and figuratively. Watching Jim surf-ride his scuba fin through the Ulong Channel was a highlight we’ll never forget! 🛥️ Taffy – The Heart of the Liveaboard Taffy is a gem. Personable, intuitive, and endlessly accommodating, he made the liveaboard setting feel like a family gathering. He answered every question with grace, solved concerns with ease, and had a gift for making everyone feel seen and valued. His presence was a steady source of comfort and joy. 🌬️ Starr – Skiff Captain Extraordinaire Navigating high swells and windy waters with skill and calm, Starr was a master of the skiff. His conversations were rich with cultural insight, and he welcomed every question with warmth and wisdom. He added depth to our journey—both literally and figuratively. --- This trip was more than a vacation—it was a tapestry of beauty, connection, and adventure. Every team member played a part in making it unforgettable. We left with full hearts, deeper friendships, and memories that will ripple through our lives for years to come. 💙

- The crew. I absolutely loved that the fish identification slideshow was being played during meals. I really enjoy seeing the fish and learning their names!. Starr would always be playing music in the tender as we came out of the water. It was a great touch!.

Unforgettable experience in a beautiful sea of paradise!
Amazing experience aboard the Palau Aggressor II. Taffy was an awesome cruise director and dive guide. Jim was also an amazing dive guide, even as the captain, pointing out all sorts of marine life! Endless sharks and incredible marine life.

Awesome week exploring underwater Palau
I had a great week diving aboard the Palau Aggressor II! We saw some spectacular shark, manta, and schooling jack activity at the famed dives sites of German Channel and Blue Corner. Also saw turtles galore throughout the week, did some drift dives, and experienced some gnarly currents on hook dives. The dive guides were sagacious in their choice of dive sites, but also accommodating; they let us repeat Blue Corner several times because most of the divers asked to. Although we didn't visit Jellyfish Lake due to the lack of jellyfish, I enjoyed almost every dive site that we went to because the divemasters kept things fresh by selecting sites that had different things to offer (drift vs hook vs swim, wall vs reef vs sand vs coral garden, pelagic life vs macro life, etc.), particularly as the week went on. The night dives were also very fun for me. Additionally, I appreciated the large camera table with provided wipe cloths, air dusters, and charging ports. Like many things aboard the Aggressor II, it was clear that every detail was thought through to make the experience as comfortable and convenient as possible for divers. The food was also delicious; the menu changed daily and featured a huge variety of cuisines, including Italian, Russian, Japanese, Filipino, North American, and Mexican. Huge kudos to Taffy, Jim, Johnny, Ronnie, Jun, Ike, Ramil, and Edith for running such a smooth operation and being incredibly professional but also friendly and helpful. You guys definitely made my first diving experience in Palau one to remember!
