Exploring the best dive sites in Palau including Blue Corner

The New Moon trip gives you the opportunity to witness one of the spectacular natural events on the ocean, the spawning aggregations of the Bumphead Parrotfish (Bolbomeotpon Muricatum) while diving and visiting the best of Palau's attractions.

Four days before and around the full moon, you will have a chance to witness one of the spectacular natural events on the ocean, the spawning aggregations of the Bumphead Parrotfish (Bolbomeotpon Muricatum). Spawning in two different locations. This spawning usually takes place in two different locations, Peleliu, or East of Koror dive sites.
To witness this action-packed experience be prepared for the possibility of challenging conditions resulting from strong currents and early starts at around 5:30 AM. During the New Moon dives, you will experience hundreds of Bumphead Parrotfish aggregating to start their climatic mating. With loud bangs male Bumpheads bump their heads together like buffaloes to gain superiority over females with color changes taking place as the fish prepare to spawn From the deep, rising from the sandy bottom to the shallow water like a firework display, the fish release their gametes into the water column over and over again.
