Kitava Island, Trobriands

Often called the “Islands of Love,” the Trobriands are both picturesque and uniquely traditional due to the inhabitants’ ardent devotion to their way of life. The islands are part of the fascinating kula trade ring, in which a finite set of objects is continually traded over a one thousand mile circuit in traditional open canoes.
