Rules in force · 9Broken pavements and heat
  • Oceania ↗Oceania's island states guard their farms and reefs at the border: tick 'yes' on the arrival card for any food, plant, animal product, soil or used outdoor gear, and let the officer decide.
  • Oceania ↗Across the tropical South Pacific, cyclones are possible from November to April: choose insurance that covers weather delays and keep one spare night before a long-haul departure.
  • Melanesia ↗Malaria is present in Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands and parts of Vanuatu (not Fiji or New Caledonia): ask a travel clinic about tablets before you go.
  • Solomon Islands ↗Many nationalities receive a visitor permit on arrival with an onward ticket, but rules vary: check Solomon Islands Immigration for your passport before booking.
  • Solomon Islands ↗Most land and reefs are under customary ownership: pay custom fees for visits, snorkelling or diving where asked, and ask before using a beach or taking photos.
  • Guadalcanal (Honiara) ↗In the wet season (Nov–Apr) rivers rise and roads flood: keep the day flexible.
  • Honiara ↗Broken pavements and heat: bags go from the car to the door, never on a walk.
  • Honiara ↗After dark, take a car door to door; do not walk between clusters.
  • Honiara ↗Honiara has seen civil unrest in the past: avoid crowds and demonstrations and check your own government's travel advice before you book.
