Papua New Guinea is home to some of the world's finest dive spots. Papua New Guinea's deep and shallow reefs, sheer drops, barrief reefs, coral walls, atolls, lagoons, gulfs and bays provide spectacular underwater scenery ideal for diving. Blessed with marine habitat so distinct and diverse, Papua New Guinea ranks in the top ten dive spots in the world. Although the dive, reef expedition, and game fishing sectors of the tourism industry is not fully developed, Papua New Guinea features an attraction in itself to some of the world's top coral and deep sea divers. Clothed with thick rainforests and pristine beaches, Papua New Guinea remains the second largest island nation on earth, after Greenland, as well as being the second largest rainforest after Amazon. The rich rainforest debris (rather, food) brought to the ocean by Papua New Guinea's biggest rivers provide a huge bank of food for a diverse marine life. Fish of all kinds and coral reefs, among other living things in the seas of Papua New Guinea are abundant. Diving in Papua New Guinea is not the same as Jamaica or Costa Rica, rather it is an enriching experience that has the potential to spoil you in that you will come back again and again for more diving pleasure. A land filled with friendly and generous people with dive locations providingexcellent lodging and accommodation, one will not find a reason to fulfill his or her dreams of attaining the best diving experience in Papua New Guinea waters.
