Dive Adventure in Papua New Guinea: Tufi Dive Resort

Located on the north-eastern coast of Papua New Guinea, and 250 kilometres east northeast of Port Moresby, Tufi Dive Resort is perched on the flanking slopes of Mount Trafalgar overlooking sheer rock faces that plunge into an enclosed picturesque fjord draped in exotic rainforest to the waters edge.

The fjord opens onto pristine blue tropical waters and the coastline of the Oro Province and Cape Nelson with uncharted reefs, underwater WWII dive sites and stunning marine biodiversity - any diver's dream.

The adjacent mainland areas have a rich local cultural heritage and a scenic beauty that has to be seen to be believed.

Local tribal villages give visitors an insight into indigenous culture, while the orchids, birds and butterflies of the rainforest and lowland areas are as outrageously beautiful as the underwater scenery enjoyed by divers.

Tufi Dive Resort is built in traditional style and accommodates up to 24 guests comfortably with all of the trappings of less remote destinations.

Tufi offers a wide variety of diving experiences. From diving the fiords to unchartered reefs and WW2 wrecks. Constant visibility of 30 metres plus and water temperatures of 26°C to 29°C all year round.

You can dive the fjords, and experience the unique macro world and check out the WW2 P.T. boat wrecks. Day or night, a wide variety of gobie, nudibranchs, Mandarin Fish, Ghost Pipe Fish, Pigmy Seahorse and a plethora of other fascinating creatures. A wonderful array of sponge and shelf corals that line the walls of the tropical rainforest fiord, a truly different dive environment

The outer reef experience is unsurpassed with a choice of dozens of world-class dive sites. Moor onto a few of the favourites, Cyclone Cay, Black Rocks, Stewarts Reef and Shark Tip.

Dive the famous Dutch cargo ship the "S Jacob" or Blackjack - an intact B17 bomber. Spectacular marine life in abundance: schooling barracuda and reef fish, hammerheads, reef sharks, manta rays, eagle rays, grouper and cruising palegic as well as soft and hard corals.
