Bilikiki Liveaboard & MV Spirit of Solomons [FB]

The Bilikiki has shorter cruises (7 and 8 nights) exploring the reefs and shores around the Florida Islands and Russel Islands. Longer cruises (10-14 nights) venture further towards the Western Province as far as the Marovo Lagoon, the largest salt-water lagoon on this Planet. Its ecological significance and natural beauty has seen it being suggested for UNESCO world heritage protection.

The 40 metre long M.V. Bilikiki takes twenty divers in ten air-conditioned, en-suite deluxe cabins with a full double bed and a single above. She offers immense sun decks and plenty of covered deck space, a photo laboratory, TV and VCR for viewing images plus an extensive dive deck, including Nitrox. The cuisine is a blend of European, Island, and American dishes. Whilst the Bilikiki is moored in safe calm waters two 7 metre aluminium dive tenders drop divers on the dive sites and pick them up wherever they surface. Surface intervals between dives are often used to visit the island villages close by, and experience some of their extraordinary hospitality and colourful culture.

Spirit of Solomons has once again started its renowned 9, 12 & 14 night liveaboards that visit some of the most remote reefs and island groups. The 40 metre long Spirit of Solomons takes 26 divers in seven air-conditioned, ensuite cabins and has six additional cabins which have 2 single bunks, and share 3 showers and 2 toilets. Smaller cabins are often booked for single occupancy. Like the Bilikiki the Spirit of Solomons has three levels, a photo laboratory, a very spacious dive deck, two dive tenders and a fantastic crew. MV Spirit of Solomons is virtually identical to Bilikiki in size, comfort, and amenities.
