Beautiful Busamang Village 
Located 40 minutes from Voco Point this idyllic setting is representative of village life in Morobe. Thatched roofed housing, traditional canoes and subsistence agriculture are an everyday part of life for the villagers. 
Take a refreshing dip to cool off in rock pools at the base of the Bula Falls, a scenic waterfall located an easy 20 minutes inland, next to the village of Gwado.

You can take a splash in the sea, paddle a canoe or watch a local singsing (dance) from the area.
