Workation in Port Moresby: the essentials
Port Moresby spreads over the hills and bays of the Coral Sea coast, on the south-west side of the Papuan Peninsula, and counted about 757,000 people in the 2024 census. As capital and by far the dominant city, it holds the ministries, Parliament House at Waigani and the National Museum and Art Gallery. The Motu-Koitabu people have lived here for centuries, and the British naval officer John Moresby reached the harbour in 1873. The Kokoda Track begins in the ranges inland. Jacksons International Airport, about 8 km from the centre, is essential, since no road links the capital with Lae or the Highlands.

Port Moresby has only a very small coworking scene, with E.Space among the few addresses. Internet is expensive and not always stable; many people work from hotels with their own connection. The security situation noticeably limits mobility and evening activity.
