FOR DIVING ALL YEAR ROUND… 

For any scuba diving enthusiasts, one choice stands alone in PNG. Tufi Resort offers tailored packages and a range of adventurous activities, from sea kayaking, fishing, snorkelling, and much more.  

The resort also offers 30 nearby reefs teeming with aquatic life, such as pelagic schools of tuna, spanish mackerel, barracuda, white tip and black tip reef sharks, and hammerheads and rare white hammerheads. Turtles, manta rays, and eagle rays can also pass by. 

Tufi Resort is one of the few destinations in PNG to offer all year-round diving, with the clear, calm, and protected waters of the tropical fjords offering perfect diving locations for macro and muck diving.

FOR THE PEOPLE’S AIRLINE… 

Aside from the national airline Air Nuigini, another popular operator is ‘the people’s airline’, PNG Air, who celebrated 35 years of service to the people, communities, and businesses of PNG in 2022. Its instantly recognisable empennage is often used to celebrate cultural emblems, with the 35th anniversary logo being a striking representation of all the distinct elements of PNG livery, represented through the Bird of Paradise. 

Connecting travellers to over 24 destinations on PNG’s widest domestic network, PNG Air is proudly owned by the country’s major institutions and by approximately 2,300 PNG nationals.
