About this site

Ngedebus Wall lies among the Rock Islands of Palau, in the Ngerumekaol area of this limestone archipelago in Micronesia, and is reached by boat from Koror. The wall drops to a maximum depth of around 30 metres and is rated an advanced dive. Divers here have reported barracuda, eagle rays, grouper, humphead wrasse, snapper, and trevally along the drop-off. Some divers have also noted the presence of wwii ordnance and unexploded ordnance in the area, a reminder of the region's wartime history.
