The best way to experience diving in Palau
This was our first trip to Palau. As avid SCUBA divers we are always on the lookout for new and amazing destinations and Palau is certainly one of those. Liveaboard diving is perhaps not for everyone, however if it is your goal to have the best possible experience and maximize your dive time and number of dives, there is no other way to go. I have seen others state they don't see the point, all I have to say is they probably have not experienced it to see the point. Being able to wake up, dive, breakfast, dive, lunch, dive, rest, dive, dinner - with rests in between and the ability to relax and have the crew see to your every need is beyond compare. The Palau Siren crew is no exception. The boat may be a bit dated - however it's a lovely ship with a great dining area in the aft section and a nice lounge amidships. The only thing I would love to see is AC in the lounge - I realize this may not be possible on this type of vessel - however it would be very nice. All the cabins are below deck in the forward part of the boat. we had one of the two bow berths and the cabins were large enough for our needs and the bow berths have larger bathrooms and double beds. The mattresses are not phenomenal, however they are absolutely fine and we slept well throughout the 10 night trip. Each cabin has AC and the controls are centralized - we apparently had a small freon leak in our system and the engineer needed to fix it twice, however it was unobtrusive to us as they made the repairs while we were out diving. The entire crew aboard the Palau Siren are top notch! They saw to our every need. From the captain and cruise director to the chef and housekeeping staff, we wanted for nothing the entire trip. They were all friendly and 100% concerned for us to have an amazing trip. The skiff driver was awesome - very skilled and a local Palauan - Lloyd was phenomenal with the skiff. I had an equipment malfunction on one dive and aborted two minutes in and Lloyd took us on a little scenic tour around the islands nearby. The generator that works the compressor was under repair to the crew had to transfer tanks from shore for each day - they did this seamlessly and without any interruption to our experience. Again, a phenomenal job done by all. The boat also has decent internet service available at a reasonable rate - we choose to go off grid on our trips, however many of the guests were connected throughout the trip. The diving was amazing - from Grey reef sharks to macro critters, we saw a great variety of ocean wildlife and had an amazing time - all dives were conducted safely and to the brief. As a 36 year diver and 31 year dive professional, I was thoroughly impressed. Dive Palau the right way - do it on a liveaboard!

- The crew were all TOP NOTCH. The chef made excellent meals for us all. The location of being on a liveaboard enabled us to relax in between dives and have a better experience and more dives.

Palau Siren
Bumphead Parrot Fish Spawning, If you go all the way to Palau make sure you go for a full moon or 1/2 moon spawning. The Palau Siren is the boat to go on as the experts in spawning are on this boat. It was unforgettable

It was amazing,
the crew was wonderful and every crew member did an incredible job in my trip. Eric and Kailey as a cruise directors did an amazing job.They explained everything we need to know in depth dive briefing ,they were very serious on safety stop also very friendly. sebastian, our guide was professional,patience,friendly and knowledgeable in his job,he made the trip super enjoyable ,his running on the sand in a part of Ulong Channel was a nice action and fun. also he did a great job as my advanced dive teacher. he really took care of every body in my group dive.Thank you The food was excellent with good variety and healthy choices,thank u chef Michael and chef Edison.Ann, Roxy and Marvin were so attentive and always friendly and brought us more happiness. and Ula as a boat driver ,gave us a nice ride on a beautiful road through the islands of Palau and of course thank you the captain Bahari and Rommel as engineer. for me all dive sites were interesting ,beautiful and memorable. The only unexpected thing was water temperature. the water was cooler than I expected for Palau.so its better to have at least 3 mm wet suit.

Fantastic accommodations with very good diving
As for the diving, two dives each at Blue Corner, Ulong Channel, German Channel. One morning (two dives) at Peleliu (including Peleliu Express--single best dive of trip). Siaes Corner also counts as a highlight. The first day and last afternoon were in/around Malakal Harbor, so essentially it was 4.5 days of prime diving out of 6 dive days. The Siren itself didn't move much once outside the harbor, so 10- to 15-min skiff rides each way from the Siren to dive sites. Much shorter trips than diving from Sam's, but still a significant part of each day on small boats. Dives were always at least 45 minutes and occasionally closer to an hour. Great dive briefings.

Great Experience in the Remote Islands of Palau
The Palau Siren and her crew did an excellent job ensuring that the experience they offered was both genuine, unique, and amazing. The dive guides did an excellent job selecting the dive sites based on the conditions and ensuring that everyone was comfortable in the water. The dive sites around the islands of Palau are very pristine and the reefs are spectacular. The crew on board the Palau Siren is clearly a very tightly knit group which I think really helped them deliver an experience for the guests which was truly unique and special.
