Holidays in Namatanai

Yep. Papua New Guinea is kinda off the beaten track. But let's get real, who wants to follow the tourist trail anyway? Besides, there's loads to enjoy in this gorgeous region (not least of all its picturesque rural landscapes, beaches and coastal plains). Set up base in Namatanai and you can see it all from there.

It lies 870 kilometres northeast of Port Moresby, the capital of Papua New Guinea.

Relish a stroll around Fissoa to see if there's anything that makes you look twice. You ought to also consider a trip to Matanasoi.

Looking for some other nearby localities? Konge is about 45 kilometres to the northwest, so get in the car and start exploring! Alternatively, Kanabea, 50 kilometres northwest of Namatanai, is also worthy of your time.

Pander to your inner explorer and check out the local landscapes with a day of mountain climbing. Or, why not try your hand at hiking?

Setting your own schedule is always great, but occasionally it's a relief to let someone else take over for a while. Guided nature walks and wildlife spotting tours offer a stress-free way to uncover the region.

Want to have a little fun off dry land? Papua New Guinea is a fantastic place to dip your toes into some swimming and snorkeling. They're must-do activities, even for the biggest landlubber!

Our travel itineraries are often at the whim of the weather, but luckily that's not the case with everything. Rain or shine, visit the region's craft workshops any time.

If you've got some nice weather, why not take the chance to spend the day at the surrounding area's open-air markets?

If you're keen to better understand the region's past, why not explore the nearby war relics and monuments? It pays to do a bit of research beforehand to get an idea of their historical significance.

Whether you prefer the opulence of Michelin stars or wolfing down a snack from a street stall, tasting the local food and drink is one of the most amazing things about travel. So why not tingle your taste buds by trying some of the region's finest offerings?

Once you find a table and skim through a menu at a restaurant, you'll quickly discover that breadfruit (ulu) and coconuts are two ingredients commonly used in the local cuisine.

No self-respecting food lover would leave Namatanai without tasting one or two of the classic dishes, such as chicken pot and kokoda fish.

'Stressed' spelled backwards is 'desserts', and that's not just a coincidence. There's no better way to let your hassles melt away than with saksak (dumplings made with sugar and sago), a sweet treat often found on dining tables here.

Each year on the 16th of September, Independence Day holds an important place in the locals' hearts. It offers a great chance to discover the nation's history and have a little fun while you're at it!

It's always sad when you have to head home. However, your time in the magnificent Papua New Guinea region will have made you richer, no matter how much of your holiday budget is left in your pocket.

Rabaul Airport (RAB), the closest airport, is approximately 75 kilometres to the south from the centre of Namatanai. Map out a route, pack up your bags and set your alarm — and make sure you don't hit the snooze button too many times!
