Some images from Gizo

by minstrel74 - last update: Nov 26, 2004

Gizo is a fine town in which to spend a few days and a very helpful one if you intend to go further afield for some real adventure on remote islands. It's the second biggest town in the Solomons and as such will be a good resupply point for any off-the-beaten track excursions in Western Province.

There are many interesting dive sites nearby and some great operators, most notably Danny Kennedy's "Adventure Sports." They'll take you to all of the prime spots and they offer affordable certification courses for those just starting out.

 I lived in Buala for 2 years in the 1980s as a Peace Corps volunteer and had a wonderful time. Also, traveled in Small Malaita and Guadalcanal. Great people and much beautiful scenery. I have heard Gizo is the best place to visit for scuba and snorkeling

 Lovely pictures. My father may have been there, under harsh circumstances of course (1944 WWII).
