Holidays in Daru

Over being an armchair traveller? Keen to experience the real deal? Daru is the perfect place to start. You'll find it among the stunning rural landscapes and beaches of Papua New Guinea. (You'll have to sidestep the well-trodden tourist trail, but that's what travelling is all about, right?)

It's situated 440 kilometres to the west of Port Moresby, the national capital of Papua New Guinea.

The youngsters will appreciate a fun-filled excursion to the Ok Tedi Mine.

The nearby destinations of Pambwa and Suki are worthy of your time. They're located 30 kilometres east and 35 kilometres northeast away, respectively. Get in a car and see what's happening!

In need of something to get your heart pumping? For a memorable journey through the region's landscapes, sign up for a bit of mountain climbing or hiking.

Take the hassle out of travel planning and get social with your fellow travellers on some guided nature walks and wildlife spotting tours.

If you'd like to get outside and get wet, why not dive in and try a couple of watersports like swimming or snorkeling? All you'll need to bring is some sunscreen and your sense of adventure.

Take a look at what's going on at the region's craft workshops. There are a number to choose from, so it's well worth doing some research!

Broaden your knowledge of this area's intriguing past by spending time at one or two of the surrounding war relics and monuments. Do a little research beforehand or introduce yourself to the most well-informed tour guide in town.

Bank cards? Check. Wallet? Check. But have you packed your appetite? With some fine food and drink to gorge on across this region, it's the one thing you won't want to leave at home.

Looking for some insight into the regional cuisine? We suggest you get an appreciation for breadfruit (ulu) and coconuts, two traditional ingredients which go into dishes here.

There's always a local recipe or two you have to try, and during your time in Daru, chicken pot is certainly one of them. Kokoda fish is another much-loved dish that's bound to make an impression.

Calories don't count when you're on holiday, right? So it's a great excuse to treat your sweet tooth to some saksak (dumplings made with sugar and sago), a popular dessert.

You're bound to sense a buzz in the air around the 16th of September. The locals will be preparing for Independence Day, a day of national celebrations.
