Rennell Island surrounds the world heritage listed Lake Tungano. This lake is actually a volcano crater, and the island is the rim of the crater. There are only four of these in the world.
The photos in the Rennell Island album were taken in February 2007 during a court circuit visit to the island. The people of Rennell and Belloma Islands are Polynesian with a distinct culture.
If any reader has scuba dived there, please let us know in the comments block below.
Where is it and how do I get there?
Rennell Island is approximatley 100km south of Honiara in the Solomon Islands. Solomon Airlines flies there once a week from Honiara. There are a number of small guest houses on the island, mainly surrounding Lake Tungano.

we're planning to held a fundraising event for a school in Solomon Island, and we're thinking about swimming for 100km-200Km to raise some money. Is it safe to swim from Honiara to Rennell Island?
