One such wreck is a Japanese single engine fighter plane called Tony which is in excellent condition after 50 or so years in the ocean. Other wrecks include a number of landing craft and a small freighter complete with her cargo of ammunition. Diving in Morobe Province A seven day diving expedition in Morobe Province features both wreck and reef diving, abundant pelagic life, current dives, and drop offs as we travel from Lae to the Fly and Tami Islands. The voyage entertains the coral diver while those interested in WWII can dive Japanese shipwrecks and fighter planes. Dive some of our locally named reefs, such as Shielers, Linders, and Karmond's Passage.
Guests also visit the islands and experience the local culture.
You can even explore some of our smaller rivers by canoe, drifting under the canopy of the rainforest. Three local wrecks are Yokohoma Maru, Tenyo Maru and Kotoko Maru - all Japanese transport vessels lost in the Second World War. Whatever your interests, be it wrecks, reefs, or a relaxing diving holiday, this seven day package offers a little piece of everything. Niugini Diving Ltd. All Rights Reserved.
