Solomon Islands itineraries - Offering both 7 and 10-nights, the charters offer the best diving in Solomon Islands. The Solomon Islands are THE destination for diver seeking a dramatic change of scenery and off the beaten track. Divers will experience colourful, lush coral gardens, sea fans, decorative walls and caverns combined with the most amazing marine life.
Wreck divers will get a thrill out of the wreck itinerary. A number of Japanese and Allied Forces’ ships and planes ended up on the bottom of the Iron Bottom Sound near Honiara during WWII. Encrusted in corals and surrounded by a plethora of marine life, these wrecks are silent witnesses of some of the fiercest battles that took place in WWII.
Papua New Guinea - Offering arguably the best diving in the Pacific, Papua New Guinea deserves to be added to your bucket list. PNG dive sites are so pristine and remote that new marine species are still being discovered. Divers will experience hammerheads, whale sharks, mantas, dolphins, and pilot whales. For macro lovers, there is also world-class muck diving. Two itineraries are offered in New Britain and one in New Hanover and have been selected for the best possible diving in Papua New Guinea.
