Which of these places in Papua New Guinea or the Solomon Islands would be the most accessible?

Which of these places in Papua New Guinea or the Solomon Islands would be the most accessible? - Woods Covered With Snow

There's a solar eclipse on May 10 that covers part of Papua New Guinea. There are four feasible options to see it, as far as I can tell from the path.

  • Alotau, on the east of Papua New Guinea.
  • Normanby Island
  • Muyua Island
  • or possibly, Vurango Island in the Solomon Islands

I'm trying to establish which would be the least effort to get to. My friend in Port Moresby tells me that I'd likely need a boat to get to Normanby. I figure I'd ask here. Which of these is the most accessible location, in terms of cash spent? (I don't mind any form of transportation, although I hesitate to hitch in this territory). As you can tell, I know very little about the region.
