Among the best places to watch sharks is Palau’s Blue Corner. This is where scuba divers ride the current to the wall crest and attach themselves to the rocky ledges using reef hooks. The reef hooks allow divers to remain stationary while watching sharks swimming effortlessly against the current right before their eyes.

Micronesia Travel: Jellyfish Lake

Jellyfish Lake in Palau is a unique natural setting like no other. An isolated population of jellyfish have been trapped in a land-locked lake in Palau for generations. They have no predators, and as such, have lost their stingers. You can snorkel with the jellyfish – an amazing, not-to-be-missed experience unique to this island paradise and just one of the many reasons why it is among the list of the best scuba diving locations.
