Everything from macro minutia to pelagic power.  Quite simply a diver's dream world.
Sharks, cuttlefish, ghost pipefish, rhinopias . . . an endless list of life forms to discover.
Diving like you've never seen before.  Culture like you'll never see again.

A Personal Note from Dominick Papua New Guinea.   The name conjures up  the vision of an infinitely remote, mysterious & untamed island, embued with a history of ancient & primitive  tribal customs that lasted well into the modern era. So, before I even thought about diving in Papua, I was attracted by its wild & alluring reputation. But then, of course, I dove there  . . . and like others before me, found the seas to be as magical as, no, probably even more magical than the land. There's truly something for everyone.  The corals really are pristine & vibrant;  there really are sites with such a plentitude of pelagics that it makes your blood boil to swim amongst them;  and there honestly are countless sites  which provide macro photography opportunites that simply cannot be put into words. Plus, there is so much space and there are so few dive boats, that you just won't ever have to face hundreds of other divers  exploring "your" dive site!   Two dive boats at the same site at the same time is virtually unheard of in Papua New Guinea.  So you really can have the feeling of being an explorer in a lost region of the planet while you're finning along in this underwater wonderland. On top of which, the boats & resorts there are ALL first class.   So, take a look through the options here and let us know if we can give you any additional information & useful advice if you are planning to visit this island of eternal fascination.   Liveaboards & Resorts Papua New Guinea today offers not only some of the most desirable diving but also unquestionably many of the truly finest boats and resorts to be found anywhere in the diving world.  Making a choice here is not an easy task.  Here's the overview . . . . The FeBrina is known for some of the best adventure diving in PNG  with fabulous programs around Kimbe Bay and the Bismark Sea from Walindi Plantation Resort.  Then in February and March, she  goes to Rabaul for three ten night trips along the protected South coast of New Britain.  You can be assured that your trip here will encompass real exploration and adventure. The Star Dancer which is part owned by Max Alan & Peter Hughes, recently underwent a major half million dollar refit of her main engines and mechanics, so now you have a spacious go anywhere vessel with updated engines, not unimportant in these remote parts of the world. On the Golden Dawn, Captain Craig de Witt has long enjoyed a reputation as one of the top acts in PNG, and along with his monopoly on trips to the Eastern Fields, he is now the only live-aboard that offers re-breathers (8 Kiss setups) and is a qualified instructor to certify you.  2008 will be Craig’s final year in PNG as he has been asked to run an operation out of Australia, for which he is designing and building a new boat. We still have a few spaces on his last 14 night trip to Eastern Fields for December 5-19.  It's one NOT to miss! Owner/captain Paul Baker of the Telita completely refitted this boat and despite her years, she is still one of the most comfortable & popular of the PNG boats. She is now equipped with nitrox and all cabins have ensuite bathrooms & she spends much of her year in Milne Bay and the heads north to Kimbe Bay.     The lovely new Tawali Resort in Milne Bay is the home base for the Spirit of Niugini, a new addition to PNG and formerly known as the Aqua One in Thailand.  Tawali is also home to Chertan owned and operated by pioneer Rob van der loos – probably the most knowledgeable captain in Milne Bay with the Chertan being the best value for a group charter. For land based diving in PNG, you now have a huge choice, from the low-key Loloata, which by the way hosts  some world-class dive sites, to Walindi on Kimbe Bay, Tawali on Milne Bay and last but not least, the lovely Tufi Resort.
