very helpful in my u/w photography.......1999-08-31
very helpful in telling me what to expect at various sites so i could decide which lens to put into my housing. Camera preparation cuts into my vacation time...and these books help get ready. So i always study them before i go. always.
Don't Waste Your Money.......1997-06-03
Like all the Pisces dive guides I've read, this
one is superficial and poorly illustrated. Don't
waste your money on this lightweight and useless
pamphlet masquerading as a dive guide.

Product Description
The Palau archipelago in Micronesia boasts a huge barrier reef that protects the mushroom-shaped limestone Rock Islands, offering tranquil diving and snorkeling in the lagoon's warm waters. Dramatic drop-offs at the famed Ngemelis Wall and Blue Corner makes Palau an adrenaline-pumping drift-diving paradise. Explore historic WWII shipwrecks, venture into mysterious sea caves, and snorkel ancient Jellyfish Lake. From the southern tip of Peleliu to the northern reaches of Kayangel Atoll, this guide covers 48 of Palau's best dive sites, with full-color photos throughout.

worth the price.......2005-11-24
Well worth the money to purchase this book. There are LOTS of quality places to snorkel and dive in Palau, this book gives you some help picking out the best places for you. Also some (not a ton, but adequate) suggestions for dry-land activities.
And yes, I was in Palau spring 2005- the jellys in jellyfish lake are back to a healthy population after El nino!
Very helpful while diving Palau.......2002-01-29
I spent 10 days diving Palau in June 2001 and this book was incredibly helpful. There are so many dive sites to choose from in this region, and this book did an excellent job detailing each and every one. Since most dive operators in this region take "requests" rather than dictate where you're going, it's nice to have some information to make an informed decision, depending upon whether you want to focus on macro, big animal enounters, drift dives, wrecks, etc. Going to dive Palau without this book is simply a bad idea.
Excellent, and more than just a diving & snorkeling guide !.......2001-07-28
I used by no means to be a fan of diving and snorkeling. Yet, the beautiful seas of the Pacific, combined with this wonderful excellently written guidebook, introduced me to the wonderful world of this activity. The guidebook provides excellent and invaluable information and advice for divers and snorkelers - beginners and experts alike - with special focus on how great this can be in Palau. Meanwhile, the guidebook is also a wonderful travel tool for visiting Palau, whether or not you are primarily there for snorkeling and diving. All in all, it is surely a worthwhile, if not crucial, purchase, before you set off to the Pacific.
