Kayaking Expedition Palau

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Palau

Hi All

Has anyone here ever been on a kayaking expedition in Palau?

I am considering a kayaking trip to palau for 2 or 3 weeks, probably around november/december time. What are paddling conditions like at this time of year? I am a proficient sea kayaker, but I have never paddled anywhere so exposed to the ocean as palau.

Obviously I will be visiting the rock islands, but I'm also considering paddling down to Angaur Island and/or up to Kayangel.

Any tips on where to paddle would be most welcome!

Thanks in advance for your help.

hey sir, you might wanna read my report from palau back in 2011. i made a 3-day kayak expedition on my own plus one separate expedition with other fellow-paddlers. here its is: http://www.2palms.net/palau2011.htm

there are plenty of other blogs, amongst which this one is one of the most informative: http://kayakingpalau.blogspot.cz/, and from which i had also gathered most information before i set off myself.

stay safe
