Plan this trip with AI →The Palau Sport is a 38-meter/125-foot liveaboard built to carry divers deep into the Philippines' legendary Palau and Tubbataha Reefs. From the vibrant coral walls of Apo Reef to the historic World War II shipwrecks of Coron, its safaris trace some of the country's most spectacular underwater country — thriving reefs, mysterious caves and remote islands across the pristine waters of Palawan.
Expect up to four dives per day, with Nitrox available on board for those who want more bottom time. The dive deck is shaded and fitted with rinse hoses and DIN adaptors, while a dedicated camera station keeps sensitive gear ready between descents. Sidemount diving is supported, and two tenders ferry divers to the sites.
Back on board, comfort matches the adventure. En-suite, air-conditioned cabins — including seaview cabins — offer a restful base, while the air-conditioned saloon, sun deck, observation deck and outdoor dining and BBQ area make the surface intervals just as memorable. WiFi keeps you connected between dives.
