Introducing Munda
New Georgia’s largest settlement, the little town of Munda, on New Georgia itself, makes a convenient, if not glamorous, base for exploring the area’s many attractions. It has the airport terminal, government offices, a police station and a well-equipped hospital. The post office (8am-noon & 1-3.30pm Mon-Fri) is in the centre, as is the Bank South Pacific (62177; 8.30am-3pm Mon-Fri), where you can change cash and travellers cheques. The ANZ branch, inside the post office, can do cash advances on your credit card (Visa and MasterCard), and an ATM ought to have been installed just outside the post office by the time you read this. Check your emails at Telekom (per hr S$48; 8am-noon & 1-4.30pm Mon-Fri).
