MV Black Pearl

The MV Black Pearl brings PADI scuba diving to the pristine waters of Palau. Operating as a PADI Dive Boat, it puts divers within reach of the region's underwater terrain, with Enriched Air (Nitrox) available for those looking to extend their time beneath the surface.

Built for divers

On board, the dive deck is set up with practical touches that keep the focus on diving. Warm-water showers take the chill off between dives, a battery charging station keeps gear and lights ready, and a shelf of fish ID and diving books helps you make sense of what you've just seen.

Guidance and conversation flow in both English and Russian, making the Black Pearl a comfortable fit for international divers. Whether you're logging your first PADI experiences or returning for more of Palau's waters, it's a straightforward, dive-focused base for exploring one of the Pacific's most storied destinations.
