Manus Province

RICH BIODIVERSITY IN OUR SMALLEST PROVINCE

Visit the tiny volcanic islands where war history, rich culture, and new tourism fight for a spot in the limelight.

The Admiralty Islands and a scattering of low-lying, mostly uninhabited atolls, form the province of Manus, whose northern border touches the equator. Plan well for your Manusian adventure, as tourists are a rare sight here. You can spend a morning browsing the market in the main hub of Lorengau before negotiating your afternoon activities with a local guide.

MUST SEE

  • Get swept up in the rhythms of the spectacular and unique traditional Garamut-led Manus dance.
  • Try our famous fresh fish and seafood including reef fish, tuna, mackerel, crab and lobster at the restaurant at Harbourside, or on request at your guesthouse.
  • Explore the small island of Tuluman that came into existence in the 1950s thanks to an undersea eruption and rapidly cooled lava.

HOW TO GET THERE

Domestic flights arrive five times a week at the Momote Airport in Manus from Port Moresby. Arrange a shuttle service in advance or take a PMV bus to Lorengau town. From the airport it’s a 30-minute drive west.
