Malaita Province is located in the Solomon Islands, east of the capital Honiara. It is famous for its pristine beaches and unique culture. Home to numerous traditional cultures, Malaita is a popular tourist destination in the Pacific.
The main attractions include the beautiful Auki Beach with its crystal clear waters and stunning views of neighboring islands, and the Uepi Island Resort - a secluded paradise just off Malaita's coast. For a more cultural experience, visitors can explore ancient tribal villages dotting Malaitan shorelines or visit Marau Sound, home to many traditional dugout canoe festivals each year.
An interesting historical fact about Malaita Province is that it was once home to one of the largest cannibal tribes in Melanesia - this tribe drastically declined during World War II due to widespread displacement and disease brought by Allied forces. Today it remains an important reminder of Melanesian culture and heritage for all who visit this region.
