WWII wrecks resting in Iron Bottom Sound now colonised by coral, villages that still trade in traditional shell money, and diving where the fish outnumber the visitors by a margin that is hard to believe.

The best time to visit Solomon Islands is May–Oct, when typical daytime highs reach about 30°C (85°F).
