NEW: The Solomon Islands
This remote, seldom-traveled country in the south western corner of the Pacific was a major WWII battleground and is considered one of the worlds most exotic dive destinations. Our experience was facilitated by the renowned live-aboard dive vessel, M.V. Bilikiki. Thirteen nights aboard ship enabled diving sites in various regions, including the Florida Islands, Mary Island, the Russell Islands and Marovo Lagoon near New Georgia Island.

M.V. Bilikiki _D501411
Bilikiki began operating in the Solomon Islands in 1989. It has 10 cabins and can accommodate up to 20 guests. There were 13 on our cruise.
We found the Bilikiki to be well-maintained, stable and comfortable. The entire crew were excellent. Meals were fresh, healthy and delicious. Most importantly, diving was well facilitated, providing opportunities for up to 5 dives per day.
Pictured motoring to the first dive site of the morning while some of the guests pursued several passing Orcas in the dive tinnies.
