The Solomon Islands and PNG are both world-famous diving destinations with excellent conditions most months of the year. The biodiversity is astounding, with a colourful array of hard and soft corals, and teeming fish life, along with a jaw-dropping collection of WWII plane and shipwrecks. Live-aboard boats and first-rate dive resorts provide access to sites far from the hordes. The waves are equally un-crowded for surf lovers, with fantastic reef, point and beach breaks scattered around the region’s northern shores. There’s also fantastic fishing in these pristine waters, with yellowfin tuna, mackerel, sailfish and the legendary Papuan black bass in abundance.
Home to more than 800 distinct languages, PNG and the Solomons provide incomparable opportunities to be immersed in a variety of fascinating traditional cultures. It’s well worth planning your trip around one or two of the major annual festivals: see colourfully painted and feathered Highland warriors, fearless snake-wielding fire dancers and brilliantly attired island oarsmen chanting to the backdrop of pounding drums. Festivals aside, there are myriad paradigm-altering singsing (celebratory dance or festival) on the Trobriand islands, learning about the legends of an eerie skull cave or sharing fruit with new-found friends on a bumpy PMV ride.

Published in 1996. Warwick Clay's Cruising Guide ( Fully revised Second Edition 2001) covers the South Pacific from the Mariana Islands in the Northwest across to the Galapagos in the east then down past Easter Island to New Zealand in the Southwest.
This guide covers this vast area in detail and virtually every anchorage is described with supporting plans produced from the Author's own information.
The aim of the anchorage listing is to provide the yachts with enough information so that they can choose their destination for the day, confident it will suit their needs and that they can arrive with the minimum of difficulty. Anchorages have been chosen to suit the long distance cruising yacht. They are all suitable for night anchoring of yachts drawing up to two meters, and in most cases, larger yachts.
