Solomon Islands 🇸🇧

The Solomon Islands are a fairly large group of Pacific islands located northeast of the continent of Australia. In total, the state includes over 990 large and small islands, considered part of the so-called Melanesia. Almost all of these islands are of volcanic origin, so they are very picturesque. They are covered with evergreen tropical forests, sometimes turning into impenetrable jungles.

This corner of the Earth has become the most sought-after for drivers whose eyes open to intact coral reefs, colorful marine fauna, ships and planes flooded during the Second World War.

One of the most popular tourist attractions was the cruise ship "World Discoverer", which on April 30, 2000 ran into a reef and ripped its starboard side. Under the threat of flooding, the captain sent the ship to a quiet bay on a shoal (Roderick Dhu Bay, Nggella Sule Island). Human casualties were avoided, but the ship could not be saved.
