# Travelling and diving New Britain Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea
mighty_mungo 16:09 UTC 12 Jan 2011 | Hey, I'm planning to travel and dive New Britain in March. Thinking about landing in Hoskins and working my way up to Rabaul and Kokopo, then possibly heading over to New Ireland. Has anyone been up through that way and can recommend where to stay and to go and see. Cheers |

Not sure what your budget is but I've stayed at the Malagan lodge a few times and it's gorgeous. Otherwise, if you travel out from Kavieng to one of the islands, there are heaps of hotel 'huts' you can stay in which are adjacent to local villages... | 2
