Description:

Malakal harbour lies on the western side of Koror island, which itself lies off the southern end of the main island of Palau.

Do not rely on GPS for entry into Palau.

There are definite discrepancies between GPS derived positions and most charts of Palau, including both paper and electronic charts.

The GPS position at the centre of the entrance to the East Passage is 07° 16.84′ N x 134° 28.01′ E. Watch out for the reef extending seaward from both sides of the channel. Do not cut the corners!

The GPS position at the center of the entrance to the West Passage is 07° 32.48′ N x 134° 27.77′ E. This should locate you in line with the range markers.

It is strongly advised that you arrive in daylight and in time to arrive at the commercial dock before 4.30pm.
