Are you after a completely refreshing surf holiday?

Let me put forward a compelling case for Papua New Guinea.

PNG is a chilled, uncrowded and alluring option. Leave civilization behind, visit waterfalls, stay in beautiful beach huts at Vanimo Surf Lodge, Rubio Plantation RetreatNusa Island Retreat or cruise the reefs on the PNG Explorer.

There is a very high likelihood you will have the waves to yourself.

PNG ticks so many boxes. It is a short flight from Australia, best in our summer, and there’s a super wide variety of waves for all levels to sample. There’s hollow reef breaks, nice walls, some empty beach breaks and everything in between. There’s incredibly untouched scenery, volcanoes, World War two relics to view, and quality fishing and diving opportunities.

This coming season, Shane Peel’s son Chris is jumping aboard the PNG Explorer as full time photographer. He has the lineage, experience and all the equipment to document every tube, every smile, every beer, every fish and make them available for guests to take the memories home.

In addition to photography, Chris is a fully qualified dive master and surf guide so you will have the option to get some great scuba under your belt in arguably the best diving destination on the planet as well as make sure your right on the take-off spot for the best sets.
