Lumbari Island is a tiny islet near Munda that offers a blend of natural beauty and wartime history. Its main draw is the remains of a Japanese radar station, hidden among coconut palms and beach vegetation. Visitors can wander through concrete bunkers and foundations, imagining the island's role in monitoring Allied aircraft. The surrounding beach provides a peaceful contrast, with clear waters ideal for a quick swim. It's a quiet, off-the-beaten-path spot for those interested in the Pacific War's lesser-known sites.
Don't miss
- Explore the concrete ruins of the Japanese radar station and bunkers.
- Relax on the small sandy beach with views of the lagoon.
- Snorkel in the shallow waters near the shore.
