Strong currents can reverse or accelerate with little warning at Peleliu, so brief closely with your boat crew on the planned drift direction and agree a clear surface signal protocol before you descend. Bottom time burns fast below 30 metres on this wall, so set a firm turnaround depth with your buddy before entering.
