Western Islands, Papua New Guinea

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bismarck Archipelago

The Western Islands are a group of islands in the Bismarck Archipelago, part of Papua New Guinea, off the northeastern coast of New Guinea in the western Pacific Ocean.

Islands :

• Aua Island
• Hermit Islands
• Kaniet Islands
• Ninigo Islands
• Wuvulu Island

The coordinates for the location of these islands are wrong. Those given (5°00'S, 150°00'E) are in fact on the tip of the Willaumez Peninsula, in W New Britain. The correct coords would be about 1°30'S, 143°00'E.
