Solomon Islands form a volcanic chain of over 900 islands, stretching nearly 1,000 miles across the South Pacific. Near the western end of this chain lie the Arnavon Islands, home to the largest Hawksbill turtle rookery in the South Pacific. Following a tumultuous history marked by arson, conflict and poaching, conservation efforts on these islands are now a beacon of hope for critically endangered hawksbill turtles and an inspiring example of community-led conservation.
