Honiara is the capital of the Solomon Islands and of Guadalcanal Province,
although it is a separately administered town. The administrator is the Honiara
City Council.
The name "Honiara" is actually a misnomer: the English
colonialists found it hard to pronounce the original name of the area in the
northern Guadalcanal languages: Nagoniara. Nagoniara means "in front of the
wind."
The flag is a "seal on a bedsheet", completely white with the seal
of the Honiara City Council in the center.

The flag of the city of Honiara is equivalent to the flag of the Honiara City
Council. Instead of the inscription "Honiara City Council" are the descriptions
" CITY OF HONIARA" and "NATIONAL CAPITAL".
