Join us on the brand new Ocean Hunter III, the new baby of Navot and Tova whom have pioneered the very best live aboard diving in Palau from the very beginning days of Ocean Hunter I! Ocean Hunter III will start cruising in Palau March of 2008. We are currently deciding on the exact dates for either a 10nt trip or possibly 12 nts.

Ocean Hunter LiveaboardOcean Hunter LiveaboardWelcome to Ocean Hunter III, the latest addition to the Ocean Hunter Fleet in Palau. The boat will represent 25 years of knowledge in the liveaboard industry and like all of our liveaboards was designed by divers, for divers. So where are we taking her? Everywhere we can! Once she’s been refitted to our usual high standards (about a 5 month job) then we’ll be exploring all over the Western Pacific Ocean. We’re planning on taking her to all sorts of exciting and rarely-dived places – the Southwest Islands of Palau, the outer islands of Yap, Northern Papua New Guinea, the Northern Marianas and even north to the Southern islands of Japan

Ocean Hunter III has 6 standard cabins and 2 master staterooms all with private bath and a/c, and accommodates up to 16 guests with personal attention and plenty of space. There is a large dining room and a comfortable salon with sofas and an entertainment system. Furthermore, the vessel is designed for professional underwater photography, TV and Film production, with a sizeable working area, 110, 220 and 415 volt electrical outlets, , extra storage space, and E-6 processing available overnight. Ocean Hunter III offers powerful PC’s for movie and video editing.

The Dives

Ocean Hunter LiveaboardWhere are we going? Ocean Hunter III will be travelling to all the usual spots and more! Not only will you be diving all the world-famous spots of Palau such as the fabled Blue Corner, we'll be taking her further afield too. At the moment we have trips planned to the Southwest Islands of Palau / Northern Papua New Guinea, Yap and the Outer Islands of Yap, The Northern Marianas and more.

These virtually undived reefs are in pristine condition and represent a once-in-a-lifetime diving experience.

Maximizing your dives – the Ocean Hunter III crew will use their knowledge and experience to bring you to the right dive site at the right moment. Diving off the Ocean Hunter means you get personal attention, reefs without a crowd, easy entry into the water and a maximum bottom time! Instead of waiting for 25 other divers to surface or have them wait for you, you and your buddy can stay underwater as long as you like, without any pressure.

After giving you a briefing at least one divemaster will enter the water with you on every dive to guide, guard and assist.

Night dives are offered every night.

Ocean Hunter LiveaboardLevel of diving experience - we welcome all levels of divers, from experienced to beginner. Another great advantage of diving from the Ocean Hunter is that we dive mostly from the main boat. Because of its size and shallow draft, the Ocean Hunter III will usually take you directly above the dive site so you can jump off the main boat from a comfortable dive platform. Some sites visited are even inaccessible by day boats and bigger liveaboards. When your dive is over, you can climb back onboard and take a warm, freshwater shower right on the spacious dive deck before being offered a delicious snack such as cake or a fresh fruit smoothie. Where you live and where you dive is only a jump away.
