Located near the busy capital city of Papua New Guinea, locals and tourists can have their share of the sun, sand and sea just a few minutes away from the dry and dusty capital of Port Moresby.

Love for Culture of the Trobriand Islands

January 21, 2017 By //  by Sarah Cruz Leave a Comment

The Trobriand Islands are a group of scattered and isolated islands found in the Milne Bay Province of Papua New Guinea. The islands were made famous by Bronsilaw Malinowski, who was an anthropologist who published many studies about the Trobriand culture during the early 1900s. What makes the community unique is its distinct social structure that remains far different from one to be found anywhere else in the country.
