Getting There
The Western Province is by far the most popular destination for tourists who choose to travel to the Solomon Islands. The town of Gizo is the only truly Westernised, tourist orientated town in the Province. Gizo is situated beside the island's only sea port and is only a five minute boat ride away from Solomon Airline's domestic airport which offers daily flights connecting to the country's capital, Honiara. The flight from the capital takes about one and a half hours.

History / Culture
Ghizo contains much of the Western Province's World War II history with many well preserved American and Japanese war relics still visible on the land and in its waters. Some of the main shops in the township of Gizo are even war relics, being operated out of abandoned American aircraft hangers.
Gizo offers a rich, friendly culture and educational visits to numerous sacred areas can be arranged. To this day, local islanders are famous for producing exquisite, traditionally themed carvings from wood and stone.
