Milne Bay is an area on the very far eastern end Papua New Guinea that consists of seven groups of islands. During the war, the Bay was a very large naval base in which thousands of servicemen and ships passed through. The Bay is spread out over thousands of kilometers of ocean and known for its impeccable diving. Milne Bay offers plenty of reefs that are very well preserved and packed with wildlife. Due to the areas use during the war, there are also many wrecks that are very popular amongst divers.
Located on the north shore of Milne Bay, Alotau is the capital of the province. While there are many points of interest in the city the Battle of Milne Bay Memorial is one that carries a lot of weight. Alotau is where the Australian and Papuan forces pushed back the Japanese during the war and ultimately led to the Japanese's first land defeat.
