Coat yourself in the mineral-rich white mud of the Milky Way lagoon, then paddle a sea kayak through Rock Island channels as the light turns gold.
What to expect
Your guide paddles alongside you through narrow channels between limestone islands before reaching the shallow Milky Way lagoon, where you scoop soft white mud onto your skin and float in the mineral water. As the sun lowers, you kayak back through glassy water with the Rock Islands silhouetted around you. It's a physical, sensory close to a Palau day rather than a sightseeing checklist.
Good to know
Reasonable fitness needed for the kayaking; tours run 3-4 hours. Book the late-afternoon departure specifically for the best light and cooler paddling conditions.
