Palau Features Natures Most Unique, One-of-a-Kind Attractions...Swimming with Jellyfish
"Swimming in warm, golden Jellyfish Lake, I'm surrounded by friendly intelligent jellyfish," writes travel journalist and photographer Sharon Spence Lieb. "At first I'm afraid I'll be stung. But these creatures are different: They caress my body and embrace my face. These gelatinous orbs seem downright curious. If I could laugh underwater I would. Who would ever think jellyfish could be so harmless? I'll remember this sensational wildlife encounter as one of the most wonderful experiences of my life. You've got to experience this for yourself."
