Introducing Angaur

Serene, low-key Angaur Island, garnished with a goodly dollop of timeless South Seas charm, has plenty to offer isolationists. Eleven kilometres southwest of Peleliu, the island is outside the protective reef that surrounds the majority of Palau's islands: open ocean pounds the north coast, where the sea explodes skyward through a series of small blowholes; the southern end is much calmer and fringed with sandy beaches.
