Summary
Honiara is the capital of the Solomon Islands. The rest of the islands have limited information and are difficult to figure out how to travel to. Here’s how to make the most out of 5 days in Honi Mara.
Coral Sea Resort and Casino has beautifully designed villas and suites that are the upmost luxury you will find on the island. The food was absolutely incredible, with my favorite emals being the lobster pasta, and the whole “crayfish”
The only downside, at least for solo travelers, is that it can be very expensive, and very secluded. The accommodation at both places are extremely rustic, so be prepared for a very quiet, slightly uncomfortable night either way.
Roderick’s Bay is one of the best snorkeling coves in the world. There’re vibrant coral, and several sea anenomae patches, that are inhabited by clown fish. Ziplining off of the ship was fun, but I definitely ended up dropping my snorkel, mask, and Gopro.
The island of Honiara has plenty of things to offer visitors. The most popular attractions include a waterfall and a volcano. The hike to the waterfall takes around one hour.
It’s possible to swim under the falls, but not at all advised for obvious reasons. You can safely swim in the water below it, which is mostly shallow until you swim towards to falls.
