Guadalcanal Island

The Solomon Islands are a country scattered across the eastern edge of the Coral Sea, consisting of more than 900 islands. The largest and most populated is Guadalcanal, the site of a grueling World War II battle between the United States and Japan. The island has a lush, tropical interior, with towering mountains, rain forests, and white-sand beaches. The main town, Honiara, is a busy port and the center of the country’s trade. The Solomon Islands are known for their diving, with excellent reefs and a wide variety of marine life.
