Diving

I have two days to dive in png in February.
I'm thorn between kilme bay, kavieng and milne bay. I'm more into big pelagics and would love the place with the most opportunity to see a hammerhead shark (i know png isn't the best place to see them)

Any recommendations?

kavieng is closest to the open ocean so best place to see sharks and pelagics - we saw plenty of big ocean sharks but no hammerheads

kimbe and milne (especially) are shallow bays with great reef diving

2 days is a short time to do anything in PNG - and dont forget recovery time before flying !
