Papua New Guinea is a premier liveaboard destination thanks to its remote dive sites, which are best accessed by boat. Liveaboards let divers explore a wide variety of regions like Kimbe Bay, Milne Bay, Kavieng, and the Witu Islands—all known for world-class reefs, WWII wrecks, and diverse marine life. Expect everything from pygmy seahorses and frogfish to reef sharks, barracuda, and manta rays.
There are limited liveaboards in Papua New Guinea, so booking early is highly recommended.
