MV FeBrina is a 73-foot liveaboard featuring comfort and convenience. The ship is an older, traditional style vessel, a very stable and extremely seaworthy motor boat, with an efficient deck layout that caters to divers and photographers who want a total PNG dive experience.
Guest cabins are a combination of small singles, large singles, twin share cabins and a double cabin in the bow. All cabins have ensuite bathrooms and individually controlled air conditioning. Cabins are located below deck and accessed by ladder-style stairs. With a maximum of ten to twelve guests, FeBrina is the perfect vessel for those looking for a true boutique liveaboard experience.
MV FeBrina runs several different itineraries during the year depending upon the seasonal weather patterns.
The "Signature Itinerary" covers three of the most popular diving areas of Kimbe Bay, Witu Islands and Fathers Reefs. MV FeBrina operates 10 and 9-night Signature trips in the peak weather months from mid-September through November, and April through June. Water temperatures are slightly cooler in September, October and November and that means there are usually more unusual critters to be found. Water temperatures are usually 29/30 degrees Celsius in the later months, and up to 31 degrees in April and May. There is usually very little rain in October and November, light breezes and plenty of sunshine.
The "Mid-Year" itineraries usually operate through June, July and August and are shorter in duration with each trip being around eight days. These trips visit two dive areas including Kimbe Bay Reefs and either Fathers Reefs or Witu Islands.
During late November and early December, trips offered include a Witu Islands Itinerary, visiting Kimbe Bay Reefs including some beautiful coral reefs and the Witu Islands black sand bays.
Throughout the year MV FeBrina will offer occasional special itineraries within the Bismarck sea and further afield.



Dive Conditions

You can dive Papua New Guinea year-round, but conditions change based on which sea you are diving. Water temperatures range from 77-86°F (25-30°C) throughout the country, and visibility usually ranges from 66-130ft (20-40m) unless you are diving at muck diving sites or sites near mangrove swamps. Water temperatures average about 79F (26C) along the edge of the Milne Bay and Coral Sea, and 88F (31C) in Kimbe Bay and the Bismark Sea.
The diving in Papua New Guinea is centered around Milne Bay in the South (Solomon & Coral Seas), Kimbe Bay (Bismarck & Solomon Seas), and Kavieng town or Lissenung Island. Divers and underwater photographers flock to Papua New Guinea to see its coral atolls and walls, WWII wrecks, barrier reefs and many other wide-angle and macro photography underwater subjects for which the Indo-Pacific is famous.
Located in Asia Pacific's Coral Triangle, Papua New Guinea lies just south of the equator and 100 miles (160km) to the north of Australia, encompassing the eastern side of New Guinea Island plus 600 smaller islands and atolls. There are 28,000 miles (45,000kms) of reef systems, so it's a destination where divers rarely come across other groups. It is home to some of the world's most spectacular scuba diving, with various dive resort and liveaboard options for every diver.
