Solomon Islands
Situated to the northeast of Australia, the Solomons are truly one of the last diving frontiers.
The Solomons comprise 992 islands, of which only 147 are inhabited. The country is simply untouched, peaceful, and beautiful. Due to its remote location, it offers some of the most pristine dive sites in the world, filled with innumerable unspoiled hard and soft corals. There is something for everyone in the Solomons. For those who like their creatures on the larger side there are various types of shark cruising amid the spectacular scenery of jaw dropping wrecks and reefs.
For the macro diver, there is a plethora of macro wonders such as pygmy seahorses, nudibranchs, electric clams, and ghost pipefish. The marine diversity is hard to beat! Solomon Islands are THE destination for the real diving fan looking for a change of scenery, completely off the beaten track. You can find wrecks, caverns, wide-angle reefs, and enormous sea fans. Solomon Islands rival any other Indo-Pacific dive travel destination for coral reefs, marine life, and diversity; but we can promise you will barely see another soul.

Solomons Master
Tried and tested with four years diving in Truk, one of our customer favourites finds a new home.
With comfortable accommodation for up to 16 guests, the steel-hulled Solomons Master boasts eight twin and double cabins, with a choice of classic, premium, and standard. Each cabin benefits from en-suite bathroom facilities and individually controlled air-conditioning. Solomons Master is accompanied by 2 tenders with ladders, which will shuttle divers to the dive sites. The tender drivers remain in the vicinity of the divers, for continuous surface support throughout the dive.
The main deck enjoys a spacious indoor dining room along with a camera station complete with numerous charging points and storage space. Unwind and relax after a fantastic day of diving in Solomons Master’s indoor lounge and bar area, with a plasma screen which is ideal for movie and photo viewing. Alternatively, why not head out to the shaded outdoor relaxation area or the large sundeck and sink into a lounge chair to soak up the atmosphere.
The vessel has a large dive deck with individual set up stations, under-bench storage, and camera table. There is a large entry platform to the rear of the vessel. Solomons Master is fully equipped to cater for recreational and rebreather divers as well as full technical mixed gas diving.
