About Palau
Palau is an island nation in the western Pacific Ocean, comprising more than 500 islands belonging to the Caroline Islands archipelago. The capital, Ngerulmud, is located on Babeldaob, the country's largest island. Palau is widely recognised for its biodiverse coral reefs, Jellyfish Lake, and the Rock Islands Southern Lagoon, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. With a population of around 18,000, the country is a well-established destination for divers and nature travellers seeking marine environments largely intact.
