Solomon Islands
Explore the Solomon Islands
The Solomon Islands are a group of 922 volcanic islands and coral islets spread across the tropical Pacific, northeast from Australia. There are six major islands; Guadalcanal, Malita, New Georgia, Santa Isabel, Makira and Choiseul. Mostly undiscovered by the masses, the shallow reefs are abundant with marine life that find shelter in caves, wrecks, steep walls, and mucky seabeds. Whether a fan of pelagic action or macro creatures, the Solomon Islands diving has it all, from ghost pipefish to squadrons of manta rays.
If you intend to experience the ‘best of’ while scuba diving in the Solomon Island, choose to dive from a combination of dive resorts and liveaboards. As liveaboards tend not to spend much time diving the WWII wrecks of Guadalcanal, divers can explore the wrecks via daily trips from dive centres or by staying in one of the outstanding dive resorts.
