The Chelbacheb Islands, also known as the Rock Islands of Palau, are an archipelago in the western Pacific and part of the island republic of Palau in the center of the Palau Islands.
The area extends from the southwest coast of the island of Koror over about 40 kilometers as the crow flies to the northeast coast of the island of Peleliu and is bordered on both long sides by a dense coral reef.
The winding island area and its underwater world are a popular holiday destination for scuba divers and kayakers from all over the world. However, the Rock Islands are also a maritime nature reserve which, in order to preserve nature above and below the water, can only be accessed in certain places. On June 29, 2012, the Southern Lagoon of the Rock Islands was declared a World Natural and Cultural Heritage Site by UNESCO.
