About our Beautiful Home

Palau's Rock Islands

Palau has been referred to by many who have visited us to be the 8th wonder of the world. We've also been called a divers paradise and a honeymooner's dream come true. We are definitely all of these things but to those who live here we are home and we all join together to welcome you.

Palau is made up of a chain of several islands. The Northern most island is Kayangel and the Southern most is Sonorol or the Southwest Islands. There are approximately 200 islands, most are uninhabited. Our total population is over 20,000. The capital, Koror is the most highly populated area of Palau, this is where you'll find most our stores and restaurants, and is currently our business center.

The official language of Palau is English and Palauan, the currency is the US dollar. Electricity is the same as in the US (Single phase 60 cycles, 115/230 volts AC) and postage is the same as in the US.
