Bilikiki Cruises

Bilikiki Cruises has been operating since 1988 and offers superb liveaboard diving to the best spots on the diverse, thriving, colourful reefs of the Solomon Islands.

Bilikiki Cruises was founded by Rick and Jane Belmare and Roger and Janita Radford in 1988. Rick and Jane had been running land based diving in the Solomons for a while having left Canada for the warmer climes of the South Pacific. They couldn't believe their luck when they discovered the coral encrusted, wreck strewn wonders of the Solomon Islands. Roger and Janita were from Australia and ran an engineering and ship building company in the Solomons. With their combined knowledge they started Bilikiki Cruises and established the Solomon Islands' first liveaboard.

Sam Leeson and Kellie Oldfield have worked for Bilikiki Cruises since 2006, first as managers onboard and more recently in the booking office. Having worked for 7 years as the full time onboard managers they can answer all of your questions regarding the MV Bilikiki and diving in the Solomon Islands.
