The Aggressor fleet is synonymous with quality and in Palau they hit the mark once again with the Palau Rock Islands Aggressor. This catamaran easily navigates between the lush rocky outcrops that form the Palau archipelago to get you further than the reach of day boats on a voyage of discovery. Dive up to 4 times a day on reefs, walls and wrecks. And in between you have the creature comforts that Palau Rock Islands Aggressor is so famous for. Together the Palau Rock Islands Aggressor and Palau are an irresistible combination.
Palau Rock Islands Aggressor sleeps 18 people between 8 deluxe staterooms and 1 double cabin (no master staterooms). Each stateroom has a queensize bed plus a bunk as well as en suite and air con. Finished to the exacting standards of the Dancer Fleet, luxurious comfort best describes the facilities on board. The entertainment centre is the hub of the large saloon and dining area. The chef whips up a varied menu for the week of international dishes served to your table each and every day. Soak up the tropical rays on the upper deck from a hammock or find a shaded lounger for some relaxation. The unique indoor/outdoor wet bar becomes the focal point once the day's diving is done. From sun up to sun down, Palau Rock Islands Aggressor will become your home from home.
As you sail between Palau's many mushroom shaped rock islands feel your dive nerve tingle. Beneath the warm waters there are an estimated 1000 dive sites just begging to be explored. Pristine hard and soft coral reefs are commonplace and home to marine life in abundance. Swim between the giant sea fans and admire triggerfish, jacks and snapper as they dart about. Octopus, clownfish and garden eels hide away. On the deep walls grey reef sharks school whilst leopard sharks rest on a sandy seabed. Dive on Second World War Japanese wrecks that lie inside the lagoon. Snorkel in the incredible jellyfish lake amid thousands of sting free jellies. The diversity needs to be seen to be believed and makes Palau a premier diving destination.
Queen bed (lower) and single bed (upper) bunk-style, private facilities, closet, picture window, hair dryer, and A/C climate control. Located on main deck.
Double bed (lower) and double bed (upper) bunk-style, private facilities, closet, port hole window through the door looking onto the dive deck, hair dryer, AC climate control. Located on the dive deck.

We are lucky enough to have dived all around the world but our trip on Palau Rock Islands Aggressor was the best ever! The boat is super, it is custom-designed for divers, spacious,comfortable and in immaculate condition. The crew were great, always cheerful and helpful but nevertheless professional. The food was superb, comparable with any very good hotel. The diving was pretty good too to say the least, with something for everyone: mantas, sharks, turtles, mandarin fish and much more, not to mention wrecks, caves and caverns. In short, a really fantastic trip! Brian & Anne, Salisbury
