On the Solomon Sea side of the peninsular that forms the north coast of Milne Bay is a small village called Lauadi.
It’s a pretty place, with lush vegetation and a black sand beach, but very little else to distinguish it from many other similar villages in Milne Bay Province.
But what makes Lauadi so special is not what’s on the land…
It’s what is under the water just off the beach in front of the village, and at the nearby headland, that brings divers from far & wide.
For Lauadi is host to two of the best dive sites in Milne Bay – Dinah’s Beach and Deacon’s Reef!
It’s hard to imagine two such different sites so close together – Dinah’s is muck diving and critters while Deacon’s offers superb corals and huge gorgonian fans.
Air Nuigini’s in-flight magazine Paradise has just published a five page article of mine on Lauadi that describes both sites.
You can also go to the Dinah’s Beach and Deacon’s Reef location pages to read more about the sites and see image galleries from them.
