About this Honiara map poster
Honiara lies on the northern coast of Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands, facing the stretch of water known as Iron Bottom Sound. Its map is strongly linear. The town follows the shoreline for several kilometres, with the main coastal road acting as a spine and neighbourhoods reaching up into the valleys and onto the ridges that rise quickly behind the coast.
Near the centre, the small projection of Point Cruz marks the port area, while the Mataniko River cuts through the town from the hills to the sea, dividing the map into clear sections. Inland, residential roads twist along ridgelines and around gullies. They give the southern edge of the drawing a branching, tree-like pattern that contrasts with the straight coastal strip.
Honiara grew from the base Allied forces built during the Guadalcanal campaign of the Second World War, and it replaced Tulagi as the capital after the war. The sound in front of it takes its name from the many ships sunk there in 1942 and 1943. A Honiara map poster shows a town defined by one long coastline and the hills that press against it.

Mataniko River
The river flows down from the hills and through the town to the coast. It is drawn as a winding line that splits Honiara into eastern and western halves.
Ridge neighbourhoods
Behind the coast, roads climb and branch along steep ridges and valleys, creating finger-like shapes that spread into the hills above the town.

Why Honiara
A map that means something
Honiara is home to Solomon Islanders from many provinces and a temporary base for volunteers, aid workers and people tracing wartime history. A map of the town brings together sea, river and ridges in a composition that feels both specific and understated.
Give it a personal title and a subtitle with a date, a name or a province, and adjust the coordinates if you wish. Choose one of five styles, then download the HD files in six sizes or order a framed print.
