Flying from Australia to PNG

Later this year I', planning a trip around Australia in a C206.

We'd like to also fly across the Torres Straight to PNG, then around the southern part of PNG for a week or so.

I've had little luck finding information. The websites CASA PNG and Airservices PNG have some resources, but seen orientated towards airlines rather than GA.

Any tips would be appreciated:
  • Customs procedures and requirements in Australia and PNG
  • Safest routes across the Torres Straight
  • GA airports in southern PNG
  • Personal safety in PNG ( do I need a gun?)
  • Any other wisdom would be appreciated.
thank you.
