The Makira province is one of the more isolated islands in the Solomons – and is situated to the east of Guadalcanal. There are remote caves in its inaccessible inland that are said to be inhabited by Kakamora – the 'leprechauns of the Pacific' – a race of natives who stand less than a metre tall. Each province in the Solomon Islands has its own Province Day. If a Province Day falls on a Sunday, the public holiday is on the following Monday.
