Holidays in Kanabea

Over being an armchair traveller? Want to experience the real thing? Kanabea is the perfect place to start. It sits among the gorgeous rural landscapes and beaches of Papua New Guinea. (You might have to step off the beaten path a little, but isn't that what travelling is all about?)

It's 850 kilometres to the northeast of Port Moresby, the capital of Papua New Guinea.

Like to venture out a little bit? Konge is 8 kilometres to the east of Kanabea and Namatanai is 50 kilometres to the southeast. Jump in the car and discover what's happening out there!

If you want something more energetic, you could take a look at the region's mountain climbing options. Or maybe hiking is more up your alley? Whichever you choose, you're guaranteed to have a fantastic time.

Take the difficulty out of organising your holiday by taking a few guided nature walks and wildlife spotting tours. Meet like-minded travellers as your reliable tour guide shows you all that this region has to offer.

Interested in watersports? Add a little more excitement to your escape with a little swimming or snorkeling.

We can't say just what you'll discover inside the region's craft workshops, but you can be certain it'll be fascinating!

Take a relaxed walk and make the most of the fresh air at the surrounding area's open-air markets.

If you would like to acquaint yourself with this area's past, why not tour one or two of its war relics and monuments? It pays to do a little research beforehand to help fully understand their historical significance.

Eating is among life's greatest pleasures, and since you're here, you probably think travel is too. Combine your fondness for both by getting out and trying the food and drink offerings at a few of the bars, cafés and restaurants in town.

Are you eager to know some of the standard ingredients used in cooking here? You should be prepared to taste breadfruit (ulu) and coconuts in many of your meals.

Of course, you can't head home from Kanabea without sampling chicken pot or kokoda fish. Popular with the locals and considered signature recipes, they are an essential experience for any self-respecting food lover.

If you never say no to dessert, you're not going to be disappointed. Be sure to order saksak (dumplings made with sugar and sago), a tempting treat that's guaranteed to satisfy your sweet tooth.

If you're thinking about heading to Kanabea in September, you'll want to be here on the 16th for Independence Day. There's always lots of excitement leading up to this day of national celebration.

When it's time to wave goodbye, don't leave your spare Papua New Guinean kinas jingling around in your purse. Why not buy some mementos as a reminder of this stunning region?

If you're travelling by plane, it's wise to map your route to the terminal before leaving. From the middle of Kanabea, it's some 110 kilometres southeast to Rabaul Airport (RAB), the closest airport.
