# organising day trip to Loloata Island? Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Papua New Guinea
bjc 01:18 UTC 09 Oct 2012 | Hi all! We'll be in Port Moresby next month and are interested in going to Loloata Island for a day trip. It looks like a few tour groups offer a day trip for about $AUD90 per person including pickup from the hotel (I've checked with the hotel we're staying at - they don't have a tour desk so can't help directly). Would appreciate any suggestions/recommendations |

Contact details available here: http://www.loloata.com/ Bring sunscreen and mosquito spray, and enjoy the snorkeling (or diving) :) | 1

climb_r 16:02 UTC 12 Oct 2012 | Just one more thing -- book ahead with Loloata instead of doing it from Moresby, as they can get full on the boat out and back (on the weekends at least), and re-confirm your reservation with them once you arrive. | 3
