@Sarus Crane : It was about 30ºC - which I can cope with, being from Australia - but the humidity was extremely high which was very uncomfortable. You walk out of your air conditioned room and it hits you and you start sweating immediately, and after five minutes you feel grotty and want to have another shower!
The ocean looks really tempting but the large crocodile resident nearby meant going for a dip was out of the question.
Advice? Be careful, it can be violent. If you can go with a tour group it would be much safer, and I believe outside of Honiara is much safer. Having said that, I was there ten years ago, and only for a few days, so I would get more up to date information before going.
@Hix Violent? I'd want to go to visit Choiseul and Malaita. What's the most ideal time to visit? I'd be trekking in the wilderness areas away from the cities looking for birds.
