The climate of Tufi (Papua New Guinea)
Tufi is a popular diving destination in the province of Oro, Papua New
Guinea. Tufi is located in the northern part of the island on the
Solomon Sea on the peninsula of Cape Nelson. Tufi is one of the most
popular diving destinations in Papua New Guinea because the sea is
suitable for diving all year round. Several resorts specialized in
diving can be found in Tufi. These luxurious resorts offer everything
you need for a diving vacation. Tufi has a tropical rainforest climate
with high temperatures and high precipitation figures. 7 of the 12
months get more than 200 millimeters of rain. In the period from June
till August precipitation figures are slightly lower and rain falls
less frequently. Because of the situation of Tufi on the sea a cooling
breeze blows here on a regular basis; this is very pleasant in this
muggy region.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
