For some cultural insight into traditional life in New Ireland, visit Kabaira Beach -- a popular spot for locals to fish and relax. Here you can also find wooden sculptures erected by village elders as part of an ancient spiritual tradition called Malagan.
Those looking for more adventure should head out on a boat tour around Kavieng Township - the largest settlement in New Ireland - where you'll have chance to witness the diverse marine life living here including dolphins and turtles!
Finally, be sure to keep an eye out for historical artifacts from World War II which are scattered throughout the island - remnants of when Japanese forces invaded during 1942-43; a significant moment in local history that still resonates today.
