Tiny yet teeming with life, Palau is like the bloopers reel of a nature documentary – unexpected, joyfully quirky, and utterly delightful. This cluster of hundreds of islands seems to have lost track of the count while offering home to an incredibly diverse marine life. Each island is like a giggling drunk friend at a party who has worn a different funny hat. Snorkeling here is like jumping into a game of Marco Polo, where every fish is called Nemo and flaunts colors bolder than a peacock at a rave.
