A boutique, family-owned dive resort on the shores of Kimbe Bay, Papua New Guinea — home to more than half the world’s coral species.
Welcome to Walindi Plantation Resort, the gateway to Kimbe Bay — a Mission Blue Hope Spot in the heart of the Coral Triangle. From our 19 bungalows and plantation house rooms set in tropical gardens, our custom-built day boats reach more than 40 pristine dive sites: coral-covered seamounts, sheer walls, resident schools of barracuda and jacks while surrounded by dramatic landscapes.
Family owned and operated since 1983, Walindi pairs world-class diving, snorkeling and birdwatching with a genuine commitment to conservation and the local community — now into our third generation.
"It's a place of seamounts rising up from very deep water almost to the surface - the seamounts are full of coral - it's like no other place throughout the great archipelago of Indonesia"
“For the first– and maybe last– time in history, we have a chance to make peace with the ocean and the rest of the living world. The conservation work being done with the students at Kimbe Bay is tremendously important and a strong cause for hope."
"A short boat ride from Walindi Resort…and I am diving on reefs that have more than half of the coral species of the world….I am hard pressed to think of anywhere on earth that has this combination of vibrant health, diversity and beauty.”
