PALAU’S SIXTEEN STATES

Kayangel Island

Welcome to Kayangel! Spanning approximately 1.78 square kilometers, this enchanting coral atoll boasts pristine beaches and vibrant reefs that encircle the island, offering a breathtaking haven for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers alike. Located just 25 miles from the tip of Babeldaob, it’s the place for both an avid fisherman eager to troll the crystalline waters or a curious nature lover yearning to witness pristine coral reefs and curious marine animals. 

Kayangel is a hidden treasure, with only a handful of visitors exploring this remote gem due to its considerable distance from the main city. Fortunately, some operators have started offering trips to this pristine area, expanding your options to experience its beauty!
