Underwater reef at Rabaul
Thriving

Rabaul

Papua New Guinea · Pacific Islands & PNG

Rabaul sits inside a volcanic caldera on the northeastern tip of New Britain, where a sheltered harbor holds one of the Pacific's most dramatic collections of WWII Japanese shipwrecks. The combination of vivid coral growth on intact wartime cargo and the backdrop of smoking volcanoes makes this a singular destination for wreck divers.
