Diving in Papua New Guinea
Central Province

Port Moresby is our point of entry to this little known area of the world. We arrange for our guests to be met at the airport and escorted to the nearby island of Loloata, where they will be pleased to find comfortable accommodations and good diving. Dives range from reefs and walls to muck diving with lots of critter stuff, leaf scorpion fish, ghost pipefish, and pygmy seahorses abound. Mantas and hammerheads and even whale sharks are occasionally seen.

New Ireland Province

Kavieng, a narrow, mountainous island, characterized by crystal clear water and encounters with pelagic fish, strong currents at times which bring about large groups of eagle rays, mantas, barracuda, shoals of carangids and sharks. This area also offers interesting wreck dives.

New Britain Province

Clean waters with little current, prolific underwater vegetation. This is a good area for macro photography. Divers will see giant gorgonians, glorious coral formations, bushes of whip corals, sponges of all types and a host of coral fish. Among the pelagics you may see spotted barracuda, turtles, moray eels, rays and shellfish, as well as gray and hammerhead sharks. At certain times of the year, there are dolphins and black whales.

Madang Province

The main diving attraction here is the proximity to the pristine World War 2 wrecks in the harbor.

Sepik Province

Just 230 kilometers from Madang, Hansa Bay is renowned for its fabulous wreck diving. In 1943, 34 Japanese merchants ships were bombed and sunk by American planes.

Milne Bay

This is great muck diving, gorgonians, alcyonarians and a wide variety of strange and rare fish abound. This is an excellent area for macro photography and night dives.

Oro Province

Tufi jutts into the Solomon Sea from the southeast coast of Northern Province, Cape Nelson. The eruption of three volcanoes created the flowing lava fjords for which it
is famous. Off shore of the sheltered bays, home to stunning coral formations and tropical marine life, teem barracuda, dog tooth tuna, manta-rays, sharks and grouper.

Eastern Fields

Located 100 miles south west of Port Moresby between Papua New Guinea and Australia, this area is noted for the incredible array of soft and hard corals, whips and sponges. During dramatic drift dives, you will see silver tip, gray reef and hammerhead sharks.
