Bilikiki Cruises has been operating since 1988 and offers superb liveaboard diving to the best spots on the diverse, thriving, colourful reefs of the Solomon Islands. If you’ve been in the diving world for a while, you’ve most certainly heard of the Bilikiki! One of the most highly-revered liveaboard experiences in the world, the Bilikiki is not flashy, but she packs a seriously unforgettable time.

In 1989 MV Bilikiki sailed as the first full service luxury live aboard dive vessel in the Solomon Islands. She is a large, stable, comfortable vessel and consistently rated one of the best live aboards in the world. | Scuba Center Group Dive Trip Perhaps a lesser known destination, the Solomon Islands sit within the magnificent Coral Triangle among its much more visited neighbors; The Philippines and Indonesia.

Made up of over 990 islands, each main island area has its own language, culture and traditions. Visiting a local village or two is a must for anyone visiting the islands. See the famous wood carvers from the Western Provence, hear the catchy sounds of modern day pan pipe music played on PVC piping and a pair of old flip flops, watch men and women perform custom dances, be traditionally greeted by warriors or escorted into a village by a “war canoe”. The best way to see a country of islands and to dive their waters is by liveaboard and the Bilikiki has been operating in these islands for more than 28 years, making her a Solomon local.

The main attraction for us, however, is the diving! While the Coral Triangle covers only 1.6% of Earth’s oceanic area, over 70% of the ocean’s coral species live here - boasting a biodiversity full of thousands of fish, crustacean, and mammal species. It’s truly a diver’s haven!

Here are a few recent guest reviews of the MV Bilikiki:

“My bucket list trip. Outstanding crew and service. Superb diving. Stable and comfortable vessel and accommodations. The chefs do a marvelous job, even catering to vegan and gluten free diets. Can't say enough good things about them. Just do it!"

"I had an amazing 10 nights onboard the Bilikiki! The dive sites were so diverse and so beautiful. We had some amazing encounters with wildlife, the crew is phenomenal and has so much energy and enthusiasm for what they do, and lastly it is so well organized and run which allowed us to dive to our hearts content. The dive deck is spacious and well sorted making suiting up and getting back on the boat so easy. We will be heading back next year!"

"Always a great time on the Bilikiki. Spectacular diving, excellent food and an amazing crew. One of the best laid out boats I've been diving on."
