Local clock times; heights about mean sea level. On open coasts the times are usually within a quarter of an hour; in bays, estuaries and on the Gulf of Mexico they can be an hour or more out. Slack water, the safest time to dive where there is current, is about half an hour either side of each high and low.

The coast faces N: swell from the N reaches it, and wind from the S blows out to sea. No dive centre within 10 km, the nearest 29 km away. The sea is about 30°C all year: rash vest or 1 to 2 mm. The town to stay in is Kavieng. Within 5 km we also list 1 dive site.
