Solomon Island Dive Resorts

Western Province

Much of the best land based diving in the Solomon Islands is located in the Western Province on or near the islands of New Georgia and Gizo. Spectacular wall dives covered with massive brilliantly colored sea fans and soft corals, wrecks of airplanes, huge schools of jacks and other good-sized fish, and... the occasional hammerhead or other species of shark. Combine this diving with the unique cultures (they vary from island to island) and unique opportunities to look back into the past... both back to WWII and the islander's headhunter past and this is an opportunity to be found nowhere else in the world!

Gizo is the capital of the Western Province of the Solomons. The furthest dive destination from Honiara. The spectacular 1 1/2 hour flight from Honiara will dazzle you with breathtaking views of the opalescent blues and greens that make up the 900 islands of the Solomons. Gizo is for the true adventurer! Fantastic walls and drop offs!

Munda is located on the beautiful Roviana Lagoon, just 15 minutes flight from Gizo. A unique history of head hunting with many artifacts to visit! Munda is ideally located for those travellers who want to get off the beaten track and head off in search of adventure. Along with the great diving, you can arrange to visit Skull Island, an ancestral shrine. In the center of the island the shrine is adorned with 30 human skulls along with Bakhia, beautiful hand crafted shell money rings of considerable value.

Uepi Island is on the north side of New Georgia Island, across the world famous Marovo Lagoon. All the Western Province dive resorts will have you understand why the Solomons are called "The Islands Lost in Time."
