All Signs Point to Koror

Palau is one of the most beautiful places on earth. The diving is reguarded as some of the best in the world and it lived up to its hype. Many species of marine animals and plant species can be found nowhere but in Palau. The infrastructure is fairly lacking but getting better and the people are some of the most friendly I’ve encountered while traveling.

A place that should be on every diver's 'to see' list. Interesting to note how many 'states' there are in Palau, which means a lot of 'gvoernors' ;-]

Shucks, Asian Spirit Airlines discontinued the sector from the Philippines to Palau. Back to the drawing board I guess, Colin....sigh.

I have read about the superb jelly fish lake a lot and would love to go and snorkel among the jelly fish. Palau is great for kayaking among the coral small islands. I highly recommend this adventure. You need not know how to swim!
