Neco Marine was the first PADI dive shop in Palau.The company started in 1984 as an office run out of a cargo container, with a small open boat, a handful of scuba tanks and a second hand air compressor. Since then, they've now grown to a 5* PADI Gold Palm and National Geographic Center.
The shop is proudly 100% Palauan owned and operated by the NECO Group of Companies.
The shop is located right on the water at the beginning of Malakal Island in Koror, flanked by the Palau Royal Resort, The Cove Resort, Sea Passion Hotel and Palau Vacation Hotel and just down the street from West Plaza Malakal.
Neco Marine's facility includes the Neco Marina, the very popular Drop Off Bar and Grill, state of the art Bauer compressors, Oxygen Membranes, high performance custom built Yamaha speed boats, highly maintained Aqua Lung regulators and BCDs, and finally the island's only Scuba Diving training pool.
