Market shopping in Port Moresby

  1. Handicrafts Market

    Boroko's dusty central square is the best place to buy bilums, Highland hats, carvings, kina-shell breast plates, shell jewellery and the like. Moresby's sellers are used to the ways of tourists and will happily engage in some friendly negotiation, but protracted haggling is considered rude.

  2. Ela Beach Craft Market

    This is the best market in PNG, with all the paintings, carvings, baskets, shells and weavings you can poke a koteka(penis gourd) at. Barbecued food and traditional dancers (about 10:00) contribute to the carnival atmosphere.

  3. Port Moresby Grammar School Craft Market

    A monthly event with good crowds and a party atmosphere.
