Dinah's Beach and Observation Point, Papua New Guinea

Dinah's Beach is an ideal spot for "muck" diving. With a lower visibility, divers are forced to get very close to what they are looking at, giving a new perspective of underwater surroundings. "This type of diving results in finding unusual creatures," explains Jackson. Jackson mentions sightings of Harlequin, Ghost Pipefish, Spiny Devilfish, Cockatoo Wasp fish and Merlet's Scorpion fish. While most dive sites in Papua New Guinea are live-aboard, there is the opportunity to venture onto land for hikes or exposure to the different native inhabitants. The weather is best for diving in Papua New Guinea from mid-October through June.
