SOLOMON ISLANDS
Solomon Islands is one of the most remote diving destinations in the world, sitting quietly just north of the equator in the Pacific Ocean. While shore-based diving is lacking in infrastructure, we have devised the best way for you to explore this world-class wreck site on our exploration liveaboard.
We already had a few charters this year with the local crew as the expedition vessel formerly known as Truk Master was deployed in Bikini Atoll and I can tell you they are fantastic in adapting and dealing with the needs of trimix rebreather divers.
USS JOHN PENN APA-23
Iron Bottom Sound is the main focus of our expedition, the resting place of both US and Japanese WWII wrecks, all victims of the Battle of Guadalcanal. We will be diving on the fringes of this deep channel, exploring wrecks such as the USS Aaron Ward (~70m), USS Kanawha (~60m), and the USS John Penn (~57m).
Read more about diving in the Solomon Islands on our website.
Don’t miss your chance to dive this awesome new destination as part of the Dirty Dozen Expeditions. We can’t wait to dive with you soon!
Best,
Aron ArngrÃmsson and the DDE Team
