The TRUE NORTH’s extended seasons in West Papua and Papua New Guinea are unique opportunity to discover world-class adventure right on Australia’s doorstep!

There are once in a lifetime opportunities to swim with The Whale Sharks of Cenderawasih Bay; to explore West Papua’s world-renowned Raja Ampat Marine Reserve; to see crocodile initiation ceremonies and floating villages on the intriguing Sepik Soiree!
