Where in the world is StinkiMonki?

[StinkiMonki]

I am an avid scuba diver and travel the world with my 70+ year old father looking for adventure. This past year we dove in an area with some great wrecks, sharks, and other beautiful sea life.

Contest:

The first person who can guess the location of the following picture will win a 5-pack of premium sticks.
While the picture is in a lagoon with a specific name, I will also accept the name of the place.
For example, if it was taken in Mission Bay in San Diego, I would accept either Mission Bay or San Diego as the correct answer.
No edits.

A special 3-pack for the person who can tell me what kind of plane I'm riding.

Thanks for playing!

Winner of 5-pack for correctly identifying location: tkoepp with Palau as his answer
Winner of 3-pack for naming plane: merkinmullet with JAKE as his answer.
