Introducing Solomon Islands
The Solomons remains an undiscovered gem for adventure travellers, divers and those seeking an authentic Melanesian experience. Flee the dusty streets of Honiara after a quick bite to eat and maybe a wander through the museum, and hit the water. In the Western Province, coral islands encircle huge lagoons, volcanoes bubble away underwater, locals practise magic and summon sharks. This is a famous dive destination, thanks to the wealth of coral reefs in the Central Province area, like the Nggela Islands. Exciting underwater topography and hundreds of sunken WWII wrecks await your perusal around Ghizo Island. It's a wonderful spot for snorkellers, too, and anglers will find the waters full of opportunities for sport and game fishing.
Some of the islands are large, with mountain interiors and fast-flowing rivers, while others are tiny atolls in stunning lagoons. The archipelago is the South Pacific's third largest and most of its people live a subsistence lifestyle that has barely changed for centuries.
