Driftwood started off in late 2005 as a charter boat service in Milne Bay, Papua New Guinea. With the gradual expansion of the fleet of boats, the hunt was on for a suitable place to house them. After a considerable search, a perfect secluded bay and wharf was found at Point King, Milne Bay.
With the knowledge that Milne Bay offered some of Papua New Guinea’s best fishing, the idea was hatched to combine the boats and newly acquired bay with recreational fishing tours. After a period of research, construction soon began at the Point King site.
By mid-2007, the final touches were completed at the Driftwood boutique resort and the first tours began offering some of the best fishing expeditions and adventure tours in Papua New Guinea.
