Diving Holidays in Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea, also known as the 'land of the unexpected', is one of the most exciting, remote and adventurous places on the planet. As well as many geographical attractions - tropical islands, towering mountain ranges covered with rainforest, and spectacular active volcanoes - Papua New Guinea possess some of the best dive spots in the world, making it a diver's dream destination. Here you will find deep and shallow reefs, coral walls, sheer drops, atolls, passages, lagoons and an incredible number of wrecks. Boats, planes and submarines, many from World War II, have been transformed into living coral reefs, home to a unique diversity of marine species. We recommend as much time as possible to explore this adventurous destination. Combine a liveaboard and land-based option to ensure a memorable and varied journey to one of the last frontiers in the diving world.

"We spent five nights at Lissenung at the end of a long adventure to New Zealand, the Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea, and
Lissenung
was undoubtedly the best dive resort. The diving was great. The two best dives were Albatross Passage and Deep Pete."
