Vanimo

Few cities in Sandaun have a history as closely tied to the frontier with Indonesian Papua as Vanimo. The provincial capital stands on Vanimo Bay along Papua New Guinea’s northern Bismarck Sea coast, not far east of the international border. Its location makes it an administrative and transport centre for a sparsely settled province formerly known as West Sepik. The road west toward Wutung connects Vanimo with the border crossing into Indonesia, while everyday life remains firmly oriented toward the coast.
