The waters of Papua New Guinea are home to prolific and diverse marine creatures and corals. Recent marine surveys in Kimbe Bay have recorded over 350 species of reef building corals, and over 900 species of fish. The reefs are a photographer's paradise. Pristine and colorful corals are home to a variety of fish, crustacean and invertebrate life. Many of the reefs have resident schools of barracuda, tuna and jacks. A range of shark species are regularly sighted, including hammerheads and silvertips, particularly at the outer reefs of Fathers and Witu. Visibility ranges from 80 to 150 ft., depending on the season, and water temperatures range between 85 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Weather is tropical, with little seasonal variation.

Most diving is from FeBrina's and Star Dancer's spacious dive decks, with easy access via the water level dive platform. Some of the reefs are current washed; without current the spectacular marine life would not be there, however, the wide range of dive sites means that it is not necessary to dive at a site if currents are unmanageable at the time.

Every dive in Papua New Guinea is an exciting new experience, highlighted by encounters with dog tooth tuna, sharks, vast schools of pelagics such as barracuda trevally and others

At Lama Shoal you could be surrounded by large schools of barracuda or shoals of carangids. You will also see anemones with their clownfish, angelfish, triggerfish and surgeonfish.

At English Shoal, you will also see a large number of anemones with clownfish. There is a fair chance of seeing some sharks , maybe even a hammerhead.

North Emma is located 20 miles north of Walindi, in Kimbe Bay.  Here, you are likely to see many anemones, clownfish, butterflyfish, damselfish, turtles and beautiful gorgonians.
