PAPUA NEW GUINEA ~ Bougainville Islands - Buka ~

... First of two amazing surprises sent by world traveler🌏 David... and once more coming from a really exotic destination... Bougainville Islands are a jewel in the South Seas with an ancient culture very connected to a spiritual earth that nurtures them... there’s huge potential for ecotourism, trekking, diving, surfing, caving, kayaking, birdwatching and fishing, but there’s little in the way of infrastructure and organized activities (for now)...  wherever you go in this province, you’re unlikely to cross paths with other travellers... with cofffee *scented* stamp to commemorate the country's coffee industry...  Thanks so much David!! ♥(ˆ⌣ˆԅ) → http://postcardsandtravel.blogspot.com/

Buka Island, island of Papua New Guinea in the Solomon Sea sitiuated in the southwestern Pacific Ocean is one of the northern Solomon Islands. With Bougainville and several island groups, it forms the autonomous region of Bougainville.

Buka island is the smaller of the two main islands and is located just north of Bougainville island. Buka and Bougainville islands are separated by a small passage 200m wide with extremely fast-flowing waters.

It is a relatively flat island, only 52 km long and 18 km at its widest point. While small, Buka island has a numerous must-visit places.
