Why Budget Doesn't Mean Basic
Palau on a Budget from Tirunelveli
Palau is a small island nation in the western Pacific that is universally recognised as one of the world's top three diving destinations. The Palau barrier reef protects a lagoon of extraordinary biodiversity — manta rays, whale sharks, and thousands of reef fish species in water of exceptional clarity. Jellyfish Lake on Eil Malk Island is one of the world's most unique natural phenomena — a marine lake of 5 million golden jellyfish that have lost their sting, allowing visitors to swim among them. The Blue Corner dive site is famous for its shark patrol — over 200 grey reef sharks circling in a majestic, prehistoric ritual. Peleliu Island holds the sobering WWII battlefield where 12,000 American and Japanese soldiers died in 1944. Palau was one of the world's first countries to ban certain sunscreen chemicals to protect its reefs — a model of environmental leadership.
