At Tufi, you will feel like you are millions of miles away from everything. Located in Oro Province just 80 miles east of Kokoda, Tufi is only accessible by sea and air.
A 50 minute flight from the capital of Port Moresby, will land you in this very unique and pristine region of PNG. A personalized boutique resort, Tufi is a hidden oasis perched atop a breath-taking fjord with 180 degree panoramic views of the sea, fjords and mountains.
Tufi resort offers deluxe rooms, plus standard and deluxe bungalows. The deluxe bungalows have polished timber floors and the walls are lined with traditional woven materials.
All the creature comforts are available, including insect screens, 24-hour electricity, air-conditioning, hot water, ensuite bathrooms, bar fridge, coffee and tea making facilities.
Most bungalows have verandas overlooking the Coral Sea or Tufi fjord. Standard Bungalows are smaller but also offer air-conditioning, screens and fans, ensuite facilities and limited private balconies.
The resort may also arrange a village guest room stay if you are feeling adventurous. Good news for single travelers. The resort has converted a standard room into a dorm-style room with 4 single beds.
The main building which incorporates the reception, gift shop, library, restaurant and alfresco bar, is a marvel of local design.
There’s also a BBQ dining area as well in-ground pool with views of the fjord below.
You may dine on a selection of local seafood, vegetables and tropical fruits in the resort dining room or enjoy a BBQ grill on the Fjord Terrace accompanied by a wide selection of wines and ice-cold beer.
The majority of reefs in the region remain unexplored and it will be some time before the full diversity of the Tufi reefs are known.
The resort focuses on reef and muck diving and all diving is carried out under the guidance of 5-Star PADI dive professionals.
At Tufi, expect to dive the fjords, discover the unique macro world and check out the WW2 PT boat wrecks.
Day or night, there’s a wide variety of gobie, nudibranchs, Mandarin Fish, Ghost Pipe Fish, Pigmy Seahorse and a plethora of other fascinating creatures to get to know.
A wonderful array of sponge and shelf corals line the walls of the tropical rainforest fiords making this a truly different dive environment.
Besides amazing diving, resort activities include fishing, bush and nature walks, snorkeling, canoeing, traditional outrigger safaris, kayaking, trekking, bird watching, beach BBQ and great cultural interaction in the village, where you can experience many activities like sago-making, net and spear works, tapa printing, face and body tattooing.
Tufi is a stress-free environment where the locals are warm and friendly. This is an ideal place to relax, recharge and feel totally invigorated.
This is the base for the Solomons/PNG Master which makes Tufi the perfect place to stay befor or after a dive cruise.
