Wellness Tips

Make the most of your wellness experience.

💆

The intense tropical heat and humidity affect energy levels — plan any wellness activities for early morning (before 9 AM) or late afternoon (after 4 PM)

💆

Stay extremely well-hydrated; the combination of diving, heat, and physical activity requires drinking significantly more water than usual

💆

Coconut water fresh from the nut is the best natural electrolyte drink — widely available from street vendors for around SBD 20

💆

Many visitors find the simple, slow pace of island life in the outer islands to be profoundly restorative even without formal wellness programmes

💆

Malaria prophylaxis medication can affect sleep and mood for some travellers — discuss alternatives with your doctor before departure if you're sensitive to these effects

💆

The extraordinary underwater world — snorkelling or diving among pristine coral reefs — is itself a meditative and profoundly calming experience unique to the Solomon Islands
