What about sports & fun?

Things to do around beautiful Sentani include watching Friday night high school sports, visiting some historical sites, playing on the lake, swimming at the pool, and climbing the mountain.  A 45-minute hike (if you’re young) takes you through forested mountainside and over huge rocks to a magnificent waterfall which is visible from HIS campus. Most weekday mornings and evenings a group of exercise-hungry adults plays a sport in the gym - hockey, indoor soccer, basketball, racquetball, tennis, badminton.

An hour and a half drive in any of three directions take you to beaches for snorkeling, camping, scuba diving, surfing, and shell collecting.

On breaks from school, many people travel to the interior highlands of Papua or to tourist attractions such as the Indonesian island of Bali.
