Blue Corner Palau is a boat-access current dive for sharks and jacks.
Blue Corner Palau is a boat-access corner dive on a steep reef plateau where strong, changeable current concentrates sharks, jacks, tuna, and rays over hard coral and open blue water. Plan for a guided current dive with a quick descent, possible reef-hook stop, and timing that rewards solid buoyancy and comfort in moving water.

Depth range, seasonality, and planning context.
Reported Depth
8m - 30m
Depth Note
Shallow reef edge around 8m, with the corner and outer wall dropping toward about 30m.
Best Season
Year-round; clearest water is usually in the dry season.
Typical Conditions
Strong, shiftable current with a drift-or-hook-in profile; incoming tide often gives cleaner water and the most fish action.
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Strong current can change quickly. Stay close to the guide, keep trim tight, and use a reef hook only where the site rules and conditions allow.
Access Restrictions
Boat access only; current and hook-in positioning make this best with a local guide.
Legal Notes
Follow Palau's protected-water rules and local guide instructions; avoid touching live reef or wildlife.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Suitable for scuba diving across approximately 8–30 m.
Freediving
Not a routine freedive target. The current, depth profile, and hook-in style make it best for highly experienced teams in calm conditions.
Snorkeling
Not a standard snorkel site. The main action sits on the current-swept reef edge below, so it is better suited to scuba.
