Flights to Munda

Munda is a quiet little town serving as a gateway to the Vona Vona and Roviana Lagoons. Munda was an important military airfield during WW2 and there are war relics everywhere: in the bushes, on the beaches, in the water. There is great wreck diving available. Roviana Island, situated in the lagooon at Munda has a colourful history of headhunting, animist religion and tribal wars. On the hill behind the village lie the ruins of an ancient coral fortress protecting the stone dog-idol previously worshipped by the tribe. From Roviana Island, a variety of excursions by motor canoe can be undertaken, from snorkelling and fishing to sightseeing: war relics, waterfalls, bat caves, and cultural sites such as the skull islands where the 'trophies' of yesterday's headhunters were stored.
