Reasons To
Visit Papua New Guinea

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation in Papua New Guinea is one of the highlights. Places like Ambua Lodge, Rondon Ridge and Karawari Lodge are unique in location and design and as long as you can survive without a few home comforts, you will love them. Service is not the most polished as the tourism industry is still in its infancy but the food is good and plentiful.

    Accommodation
  • Birds of Paradise

    Home to 38 (but still counting!) of the world's 43 species, these fascinating birds are known for their striking plumage, bizarre displays and mating rituals. Spotting one in the wild is a truly rewarding sight that very few people in the world are lucky enough to experience.

  • Diving

    There are several dive spots in PNG that are regularly voted as some of the best in the world and the remote nature of these means sharing them with very few people! Large pelagics and pristine coral reefs are combined with warm clear waters - a fantastic combination for any diver.

  • Festivals

    The sight of 50 giant men dancing in front of you with bright green dresses made from grass, yellow mud painted faces, Bird of Paradise headdresses, bamboo sticks through their noses and machetes in hand is indeed as surreal as it sounds but these are the kind of encounters you can expect on a trip through PNG at festival time!

    Festivals
  • Tribal encounters

    Huli Clan, Mudmen, Baining people, Tolai men, Sepik tribe, the list is almost endless with virtually every area having their own language, customs and dress. This really is the major drawcard of the country and you will come back with the most amazing memories and hopefully some impressive photos!

Madang Province

The Coast, Papua New Guinea

A traditional weekend destination for expats, Madang still retains its relaxed, peaceful atmosphere.

There is an excellent cultural centre, several pleasant parks, a thriving market, and countless flying foxes, which hang like fruit from every tree.

Beaches and diving

Stretching along the coast to the north are a number of sublime tropical beaches fringed with palm trees, with some of the world’s most diverse and spectacular diving just offshore.

Local culture

Overland excursions from here pass through scenic cocoa and coconut plantations before arriving at local villages. Bil Bil is one of our favourites, as the traditional costumes reflect its history as a local trading post; even their headdresses are shaped like ships.
