Weather

Weather shifts through genuine seasons here, from November's cool stretch to March's warmth, with rain a little heavier around November and lighter around February — real variation, but nothing as sharp as a true monsoon or Mediterranean dry season. In February, expect highs around 31°C with rain on roughly 9 days of the month.

Things to Do

Diving among WWII wrecks and coral reefs is the main draw for the islands' small but dedicated dive tourism.

Local Cuisine

Try poi (taro pudding) and fresh reef fish, Solomon Islands staples.
