Siaes Corner is a reef corner and drop-off located in the Rock Islands of Palau. The site features a wall that descends to 50 metres, with shallower reef structures between 3 and 20 metres. Divers encounter moderate currents that require careful management, particularly when navigating the site's swim-throughs and overhead environments. Visibility typically ranges from 15 to 40 metres. Due to the potential for accelerating currents and the presence of sharp coral, this site is best suited for intermediate divers. Access is strictly by boat, and divers should confirm current conditions with their boatman before descending to ensure a safe drift.
