CULTURES CONNECT AT DREAMCAST THEATRE | Local artist Natty Dolaiasi called a recent cultural exchange between Solomon Islands and Australian artists “a story worth telling.” Held at Dreamcast Theatre in Honiara on August 9, the event brought together Ngarluma artists from Australia and local performers for a three-day celebration of shared culture. Through music, dance, and storytelling, the exchange showed the deep connections between the two cultures — from fishing traditions to ancient songs. Dolaiasi said it was not just a performance, but a powerful way to share identity, history, and unity across communities.

SOLOMON ISLANDS BOOSTS DIVING | Tourism Solomons has praised Emperor Divers for launching a new dive centre in Honiara, further strengthening the Solomon Islands’ status as a top global diving destination. “For the people of the Solomon Islands and its visitors, this centre will open a new way to access the incredible diving that surrounds them,” said Emperor Divers CEO Alex Bryant. “It has the potential to transform how both locals and tourists experience the country’s stunning marine environment.” The new centre offers easy access to popular dive sites like Hirokawa and Kinugawa Maru, and will be managed by experienced instructor Dave Pearce. Tourism Solomons CEO Dagnal Dereveke said, “Improving dive facilities in the Solomon Islands further reinforces our stance as a serious contender on the international dive scene.

SOLOMON AIRLINES EXPANDS ROUTES | Solomon Airlines is updating its international schedule from October 3, 2025, focusing on routes between Australia, New Zealand, and Vanuatu to support growing tourism. “We are designing operations to best meet customer demand, especially for tourism development,” said John Wopereis, the airline’s commercial manager. “That means schedules which allow a 7-night stay at primary destinations.” New changes include more Auckland-Port Vila flights, a second weekly Brisbane-Espiritu Santo service from April 2026, and a new Brisbane-Honiara flight on Saturdays. Flights between Santo and Port Vila will stop, as Air Vanuatu resumes domestic services. “Designing an optimal airline schedule is ongoing,” Wopereis added, “it is a case of responding to customers’ needs and wants.”
