Helmet Wreck

Of course, for those of you who enjoy getting a look into the past by visiting wrecks, there is enough to see. There are others spread across Palau, but the Helmet Wreck is a perennial favorite with divers from all over the world. It's built on a slant, with the bow being higher than the stern.

The Helmet Wreck's maximum depth is roughly 30 m, with the topmost component resting in only 10 m of water. The ship is extensively coated with different corals and rests straight on the bottom. There are many things to observe and learn about, such as the rifle barrel and gun mount.

The tiny supply vessel was hit on the starboard side, and the explosion blew a huge hole in the ship, allowing access to the main cargo hold.

Its ruin was discovered just recently, in 1990, and all attempts to uncover the ship's true name have so far failed. The wreck is roughly 180 feet/60 meters long and 30 feet/10 meters broad, and it is mostly undamaged. Many visitors consider this to be one of the Best Diving Sites in Palau.
