Dive, Snorkel & Discover Majestic Marine Realms

Onboard is a full-service PADI 5-Star Dive Centre staffed by multilingual experts. Guests—regardless of experience—can embark on up to three dives daily to celebrated sites such as Blue Corner, German Channel, Peleliu Wall, Chandelier Cave, and the Helmet Wreck. Snorkelers may explore unique ecosystems like Jellyfish Lake, Clam City, Ngedebus Coral Gardens, or Seahorse Lagoon under guided care.

Immersive Cultural and Terrestrial Experiences

Above and beyond underwater discoveries, Four Seasons Explorer offers curated land excursions to Palau’s cultural heart. Guests may explore ancient stone monoliths, bai meeting houses, WWII sites, cave paintings, lush forests, and vibrant waterfalls—led by knowledgeable local guides.

Gourmet Dining, Spa Serenity & Privileged Flexibility

Culinary experiences define each day with full-board menus ranging from regional Pacific flavors to Western classics, all inspired by fresh, regional ingredients. Meals occur indoor or al fresco—and sometimes as beachside barbecues. Wellness unfolds through spa treatments on deck or serene seashores, yoga sessions, freshwater mud dips in the Milky Way Lagoon, and cultural presentations. With no fixed itinerary or minimum stay, this cruise affords flexibility tailored to guests’ rhythms.

Sustainability, Storytelling & Authentic Service

More than indulgence, the experience is rooted in cultural respect and environmental stewardship. Guests can engage with marine biology talks, local music, stories of omengull—a core Palauan principle valuing respect for nature and people—and sustainable tourism initiatives.
