Siaes Corner

Siaes Corner isn't always the first site people mention in Palau, but we think it’s consistently one of the best for pelagic action. You'll drop in and drift along the wall, eyes peeled for whatever the currents decide to bring past. We’ve seen enormous schools of barracuda here, spinning into shimmering tornadoes, and often a grey reef shark or two patrolling the deeper blue. What makes Siaes Corner special is that feeling of being on the edge of something vast. The wall itself has some lovely corals, with plenty of Black-back Butterflyfish flitting about and Scarlet Wrasse zipping over the reef, but it’s the open water that truly delivers. Keep an eye out for the resident Bumphead Parrotfish munching on the coral, especially early in the dive before they move off. We’d suggest going in the morning; the light is better, and the currents seem to bring more activity then. This isn't a site for lingering over macro, it's about the bigger picture. Come here ready for a dynamic drift, and you’ll likely leave with some fantastic memories.
