Jim at Blue Corner
in the Rock Islands of Palau
Blue Corner is part of the Blue Corner Complex at 7° 8'7.44"N 134°13'18.60"E
Blue Corner is about 26 miles from Malakal Harbor either going west out of Malakal Harbor and down thru Little Toi or by going Southeast through the lighthouse channel and down thru German Channel to get outside the reef. The choice is usually made based on water conditions.
