Cape Sudest

Cape Sudest is a remote and rugged peninsula located in the southeastern part of Papua New Guinea.

The Cape Sudest peninsula is surrounded by the Solomon Sea on the east and the Coral Sea on the south, and it is characterized by steep cliffs, dense rainforests, and pristine beaches.

During World War II, the region was a strategic location for both the Allies and the Japanese, and it saw heavy fighting during the Battle of Milne Bay in 1942.
