ROPIKO 2015
WESTERN PROVINCE
Situated on Gatokae Island in the Western Province of the
Solomon Islands, Ropiko Beach Resort is the gateway to the beautiful Marovo
Lagoon, the largest double barrier lagoon in the world. Nestled in a large
coconut grove with a private white sand beach and surrounded by stunning
orchids, Ropiko is a true tropical paradise.
Ropiko was originally set up as a eco resort in 1994, to employ local
village people and promote sustainability. Some of the initiatives the
resort is involved with are sustainable fishing, composting, recycling,
organic gardening, using local suppliers, and involving local residents
in their village tours and therefore keeping income on the island.
To get to Ropiko, you can fly to Seghe airstrip and they will meet your flights, or if arriving by boat, via Bunikalo wharf.
