Highlights
Built with divers' needs in mind, M/Y Black Pearl offers week-long itineraries to Palau, one of the world's top diving destinations. 12 guest cabins cater to 24 guests. Each cabin features twin beds, ensuite bathrooms, AC, and a safety deposit box. The new 200x210cm latex mattresses with 300-thread count Egyptian cotton will submerge guests in luxury and comfort.
Social areas include a large sun deck with beach beds, tanning benches, a dedicated camera setup area, a lounge with a TV, and a 6-person whirlpool. The outdoor terrace at the back of the boat is ideal for a sundowner to reflect on the day’s adventures.
The M/Y Black Pearl features a comfortable dive deck fitted with anti-slip flooring, a designated camera maintenance area with a low-pressure air gun and work table, and 2 fully-kitted diving skiffs. Palau is known for having some of the best diving in the world, with a huge variety of marine life, deep drop-offs, wrecks, and cave systems. Itineraries visit some of Palau's most notable dive sites, including Blue Holes and Blue Corner. The cruise also includes visiting the stunning Jellyfish Lake for a memorable snorkeling session among hundreds of harmless jellyfish. The Black Pearl doesn't require many logged dives; however, divers should be comfortable diving in currents to join this trip, as these can be unpredictable and quite strong in some dive sites. Inexperienced and beginner-level divers may find some dives quite challenging and may be asked by the Cruise Director to skip dives unsuitable for their diving experience level.

A great week. Exceptional boat, attentive crew, good diving organization. Very nice diving destination, incredibly full of fish (but with less diversity than Indonesia and the Philippines, even though they are very close)

Amazing week on the black pearl
By far the best live-aboard I've been to so far and it's all down to the crew, from the cruise director through the dive guides and everyone else on board who really work hard to make sure everyone is happy. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, diving is very easy from the dhingies and there was always a lot of good food ready after diving. I usually like to complain but it was really hard to do this week :)

Amazing experience on Black Pearl Liveaboard
We had an incredible experience aboard the Black Pearl liveaboard! From the very beginning, the organization was excellent — the team provided super helpful checklists and clear information before departure, which made everything smooth and stress-free. The boat itself is absolutely stunning — huge, comfortable, and beautifully designed with plenty of relaxing areas to unwind between dives. The crew and staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming; we felt completely at home from day one. The route was perfectly planned, offering a great mix of dive sites and breathtaking scenery. Most importantly, safety was always a top priority — we felt well looked after at all times, both above and below the water. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a professional, safe, and unforgettable diving adventure!

Fabulous trip, made all the better by great dive sites and wonderful guides and crew.
Getting to dive on such a diverse variety of sites. From wrecks, cavers/swim throughs, reef walls and great hook in sites to watch the passing parade of sharks. All made even better by our fabulous dive guide, Bibo and the ever helpful cruise director, Mohamad and his team.
