The island
Santa Isabel is one of the largest islands in the Solomon Islands and the core of Isabel Province. It runs for around 200 kilometres from northwest to southeast and is narrow for its length, with a spine of forested mountains down its centre. Bays, offshore islets and reefs break up the coastline, especially toward the northwest end.
The Spanish navigator Álvaro de Mendaña named the island. His expedition landed here in 1568, the first recorded European visit to the Solomons. Today most people live in coastal villages, and the provincial capital, Buala, is a small town on the east coast. Much of the interior is still forested, and few roads cross the mountains.
A Santa Isabel Island map poster captures the island's long, elegant diagonal, a shape that fills a portrait frame well. With little road network to show, the print relies on the coastline, the islands scattered offshore and the surrounding sea. The composition is quiet and open, but its edges reward a closer look.
A continuous range of forested highlands runs the length of the island. It divides the two coasts and leaves very little room for roads across the interior.
Toward the northwest, the coast breaks into small islands, reefs and passages, adding fine detail to one end of the long outline.
The provincial capital is a small settlement on the east coast, a modest cluster of buildings in an otherwise sparsely marked landscape.

Why Santa Isabel Island
Santa Isabel appeals to people from Isabel Province and their families abroad, to those who have worked or volunteered in the Solomons, and to readers of Pacific history interested in the Mendaña voyage. Its long diagonal outline makes a strong, simple image.
