Blackwater Lakes
Papua New Guinea, Papua New Guinea
Blackwater Lakes is a small group of freshwater lakes in East Sepik Province, Papua New Guinea, located in the catchment of the Sepik River system. The lakes are set in a remote, lowland tropical landscape where the water is very calm and dark‑coloured, giving the area its “blackwater” name, with reflections of sky and trees that make it feel like a quiet mirror in the jungle. The region is associated with traditional river‑based villages and is known for its distinctive carved wooden figures and rich cultural heritage linked to the Sepik peoples, while the lakes themselves are visited mainly by local communities and a small number of adventure and cultural‑tourism travelers exploring the Sepik’s backwater networks.
