Overview

Suggest edit

Jellyfish Lake is a unique marine lake located in the Rock Islands of Palau, famous for its population of non-stinging jellyfish. The lake is surrounded by lush tropical vegetation and offers a surreal underwater experience.

Diving in Jellyfish Lake involves snorkeling or diving among millions of jellyfish, particularly the golden jellyfish, which migrate across the lake daily. The water is calm, and divers can enjoy the unique sensation of swimming alongside these gentle creatures.
