Ambitle Island Location

-4.1000, 153.6000

-4.10000, 153.60001 View on OpenStreetMap →

Ambitle Island sits at -4.1000°N, 153.6000°E, on the coast of New Ireland Province, Papua New Guinea. The marker on the map shows the spot the readings on this page come from. It usually sits a short distance from the town centre, out on the open water itself, so the numbers stay tied to the coast rather than a generic point inland.

Coastlines bend, headlands focus the water, and the temperature can run noticeably differently between two beaches that look close together on a map. Comparing nearby locations is a quick way to see how local geography is shaping the readings.
