Very emotional experience. The guides from Kokopo Dive based at Rapopo Redort ensured our visit was safe. If you visit Rabaul you must see this memorial.

A beautiful area to walk and soak up the serenity of the place. If you are a fan of war cemeteries and especially of Australian war dead, this is the place to visit . Again as it is located outside Port Moresby, it is highly recommend to ensure you travel with a reputable tour group or have security escort with you. Unfortunately Port Moresby is not safe to travel by yourself.

Amazing! One of the most beautiful, pristine, unspoilt islands I have ever seen. Visited on a cruise ship. Yes, there where hundreds of natives on the beach selling their wares or offering tours. Most speak at least basic English. I found the people to be absolutely lovely, and not pushy at all. They were quite gentle. Of course they want to sell their handicrafts, and their various wood carvings are lovely, authentic, and quite inexpensive. I highly suggest you support their economy and buy something or contribute some money to the lovely children who are dressed up and singing and dancing. But get away from the beautiful shore, hire a guide, and walk to the local village and back. You will see how people live, you will see their house and school, you will pass villagers and children along the path and everyone will at least say hello. My guide, Alex, was just terrific. I contracted him for 40 New Guinea Kina (about $15), and he took me to the village and back, and also up the small hill near the beach that had a lovely view. His English was basic, but he was lovely, and I was amazed he walked the entire time ( about 75 minutes), without any shoes. Impressive. I gave him $50 Kina and he was thrilled. Well worth it. I also bought a lovely mask for $15 US dollars, hand carved. Ridiculous. This was an amazing an unspoilt paradise with lovely people; he out of your confort zone and experience it!

This island is very beautiful as is most of PNG. The locals are friendly and always eager to share their culture and give you the opportunity to purchase their basket ware or wooden items. The problem is it is all so lovley that you want to support the local economy as much as possible but there is so much. People travel from neighbouring islands just to set up a stall and benefit from the influx of tourists. It is a lovley island and a walk to some of the more remote villages is worthwhile. The cricket match is also very entertaining. Hopefully the current travel issues will settle and tourists will get to visit the islands again.

You don't offer see produce as good as this anywhere. This market reflects the amazing growing conditions in the Highlands. The locals are so thrilled you are interested in their daily routine. All in all a fine time and the food I purchased to cook in our hotel kitchen was just great.

Not huge, maybe somewhat basic, but great to have available and to feel secure while shopping. The RH Hypermarket anchors the place. It was fun to walk along both sides of each floor and window-shop too, and there is a nice little crafts kiosk at one end of one floor. A post office on the second floor is convenient. Now as others have suggested, this is not on the scale of SM Mega Mall or Festival Walk or Pacific Place. It's a mall for POM residents who have a bit of time, or cash, or both. They were making an obvious effort to keep the area clean and it was interesting to watch an army of cleaners fanning the floor to dry it. If I had more time during my own visit, I would have wanted to try more of the restaurants. It's attached to Hotel Stanley, so convenient for hotel guests who understandably fear leaving hotel grounds. This was a huge "plus" for me. Note for foreign visitors: browse through the Hypermarket, compare prices and points of origin of the products. A real eye-opener.
