Point Cruz is a headland jutting into the sea near central Honiara, known for its role as a key landing zone during the Guadalcanal campaign. Today, it's a peaceful area with a coastal path, benches, and a small war memorial. Visitors can stroll along the waterfront, watch local fishing boats, and enjoy views of the ocean and nearby islands. The point is particularly lovely at sunset, when the sky turns golden over the water. It's also a hub for local life, with nearby markets and eateries.
