All of the region has fantastic surf, totally uncrowded with warm tropical water.
Kavieng, Rabaul, Simberi Island, Big Tabar, Lihir, Manus Islands, the possibilities are endless.
It's a new frontier.
Travel is difficult, I have been lucky enough to work in the region and get to surf places that have NEVER been surfed before.
