Kamiali Guesthouse Oct 2017

Hi fellow travelers,

In case any of you is considering visiting the Kamiali Guesthouse (http://kamiali.org/) on the Huon Coast south of Lae, please be advised that we were informed that the guesthouse has burned down. Kamiali is (was?) a research station that also welcomes regular visitors and we were keen on visiting because of their fieldwork with leatherback turtles who nest on their beach from Nov-March.
Their website has no contact information and as such it wasn't until we were in PNG and had a local SIM that we could contact Maine, who's listed in LP as THE contact person for that area. His number is 72167313 and he's quick to respond. He can arrange village stays etc. If you're in Lae you might be able to get more information from Lae Travellers Inn (Phone: +675 479 0411), which accommodates researchers en route to Kamiali.

I hope this information helps others.

Sara
