Solomon Islands is a Melanesian archipelago nation in the south-western Pacific Ocean, situated north-east of Australia and east of Papua New Guinea. The country comprises over 900 islands spread across a vast expanse of tropical sea, the six main islands - Guadalcanal, Malaita, New Georgia, San Cristobal, Santa Isabel, and Choiseul - forming a double chain of volcanic and coral islands of extraordinary natural beauty. The interior of the larger islands is dominated by densely forested mountain ranges rising steeply from the coast, their rivers and valleys sheltering ecosystems of remarkable biodiversity that remain largely intact thanks to the islands' geographic isolation and relatively low population density.
The Solomon Islands carry a place of profound significance in the history of the Second World War, the islands having been the site of some of the most intense and strategically critical fighting in the Pacific theatre between 1942 and 1943. The Battle of Guadalcanal, a grinding six-month campaign between American and Japanese forces fought across jungle, sea, and air, marked a decisive turning point in the Pacific War and left behind a legacy of wartime wrecks, relics, and memorials that draw historians and divers from around the world. The waters around Guadalcanal and the New Georgia Sound - known as the Slot - contain some of the most remarkable wreck diving in the world, with dozens of ships and aircraft resting in the clear tropical waters. Explore related settings through our Museums & Monuments, Tourist Attractions and Oceans & Lakes collections.
The natural environment of Solomon Islands is among the most biodiverse in the Pacific, its forests sheltering endemic bird species, butterflies, and reptiles, while its coral reefs form part of the Coral Triangle and support an extraordinary diversity of marine life in waters of exceptional clarity. The Arnavon Community Marine Protected Area protects one of the largest nesting populations of hawksbill sea turtles in the Indo-Pacific, while the islands' rivers, lagoons, and coastal mangroves add further layers of ecological richness to an environment of global conservation significance.

The people of Solomon Islands maintain a rich tradition of Melanesian culture - wood carving, shell money, customary land ownership, and a complex system of chiefly authority that continues to govern community life alongside the formal institutions of the state. Over seventy distinct languages are spoken across the archipelago, and the country's kastom - the living body of traditional knowledge, practice, and belief - remains a powerful force in daily life across even the most remote island communities.
