This dive site, JMC, is located 50 minutes by boat northeast of Tufi Dive Resort in Papua New Guinea. Named after the initials of three local dive guides, it offers a super relaxing drift diving experience. Navigation is straightforward, as divers simply glide along with the light to moderate current, allowing for easy observation of the vibrant reef.
JMC is teeming with marine life, hosting all manner of reef species. Divers can expect to encounter various pelagic fish, often seen frequenting the area for an easy feed. Occasional sightings of sharks, turtles, and rays add to the excitement. The reef is also home to numerous moray eels and, of course, a healthy population of clownfish among the anemones.
The best time to visit JMC would generally align with the optimal diving seasons for Papua New Guinea, typically outside of heavy rainy periods, offering stable conditions and good visibility. This site is particularly appealing for those seeking a relaxing drift dive without strong, unpredictable currents. Both snorkelers and freedivers will find the site suitable, especially in the shallower sections, where the vibrant reef life can be easily appreciated.
