The map
Malaita is the most populous island of the Solomon Islands, a long, rugged landmass northeast of Guadalcanal. Its provincial capital, Auki, sits on the northwest coast. At the southern end, the Maramasike Passage almost cuts the island in two. This narrow channel separates the main island from the smaller southern part, known as Small Malaita or Maramasike.
The interior is steep and forested, with few roads, so most of the linework on a Malaita map poster follows the coast. Roads run from Auki along parts of the northern and western shores. The rest of the island is defined by its winding coastline, its river mouths and the reefs that sit just offshore.
Two lagoons give the island its most distinctive shapes. In the Lau Lagoon on the northeast coast, people built artificial islands by hand from coral stones. The Langa Langa Lagoon on the west coast is known for making shell money, strings of shell discs still used in customary exchange. On the map, both show as fine clusters of islets along the shore.
A thin channel slices across the southern end of the island, separating Small Malaita from the main body and giving the outline its unusual, almost broken tail.
Off the northeast coast, a sheltered lagoon is dotted with small islands built from coral stone, a fine scatter of shapes just inside the reef.
The provincial capital on the northwest shore is the hub of the island's road network, with routes running along the coast rather than across the mountains.
