A 7 day/9 night fishing experience in the stunning Kula Ring Papua New Guinea
This liveaboard fishing adventure has a cultural blend of visiting rarely visited tropical island destinations while witnessing the ancient traditional trading practices along one of PNG's oldest trading routes known as the Kula Ring. This trade route is the only means of sustenance that has kept the tiny islands in existence for centuries.
The Kula Ring is in Milne Bay Province and runs through the De'antraucastraux group. The group will be guided to the far southeast Sudest islands to the north to the Trobriand Islands and back to the De'antraucastraux group. There are over 250 islands in this area.
The Kula Ring contains some of PNG's hottest fishing spots which remain untapped. Tuna, Wahu, Barra, Marline, GT, Mackerel, Wrasse and Snappers. Towards the west of the Kula Ring, along the south coast of the mainland of Milne Bay Province, we have the little-known Malins Habour that's home to Niugini Black Bass and River trout.
Your incredible liveaboard package includes a comfortable mothership with an additional fishing tender, all meals and non-alcoholic beverages, all fishing equipment and fishing Guides and access to some of the most remote fishing locations on the planet.
All you have to do is get there!
