“Geographically and culturally we offer the world a unique product,” Mr Tuamoto said.

“Introducing this type of responsible tourism product that conserves our pristine environment while helping to improve the welfare of the local people is very much the way forward for this destination.

“Eco-tourism has become a by-word for an ever-increasing number of very environmentally aware travellers,” Mr Tuamoto said.

“While currently we may only be a small destination on the world tourism map, we know and we have been quick to realise that delivering the right type of product and catering to the right kind of traveller will play a major part in our aspirations for the local tourism industry.”

Comprising four bungalows, Titiru Eco Lodge is located on the north coast of Rendova Island, a 20-minute boat ride from Munda Airport which is serviced daily by Solomon Airlines domestic services.
