| Migration from all directions over thousands of years has combined with a scattered,
comparatively isolated population to produce a country rich in cultural
diversity. Melanesians, Polynesians, Asians, Micronesians and the odd
Westerner all call the Solomons home, imbuing the islands with a variety
of islander traditions unrivaled in the Pacific. With ancient customs
still widely practiced in thousands of small villages, local life is an
often-unexpected bonus for visitors.
Nine beautiful provinces make up the Solomon Islands.
Each is totally unique and genuine, simple hospitality takes the place of 5 star
resorts. The people place natural beauty ahead of man made attractions.
Visitors should be mindful that facilities are limited in some places as
travel becomes more distant from Honiara and the provincial main centers and
towns. You can get to the provinces via
Solomon Airlines or
Lalae Charters. |
