People likely experienced weak shaking there. In the capital of the  Solomon Islands, Honiara, 340 km (211 mi) away from the epicenter, the earthquake was probably felt as very weak shaking.The following table shows some of the places that might have been affected (or not) by the shaking.DistancePlaceMax. shaking intensity(*)RegionCountry99 km (62 mi)W of epicenterKirakira(pop: 2,110)III: WeakBauro Central, Makira-Ulawa ProvinceSolomon Islands310 km (193 mi)NW of epicenterAuki(pop: 7,020)II: Very weakMalaita ProvinceSolomon Islands327 km (203 mi)E of epicenterLata(pop: 553)II: Very weakLuva Station, Temotu ProvinceSolomon Islands330 km (205 mi)NW of epicenterMalango(pop: 15,600)II: Very weakGuadalcanal ProvinceSolomon Islands337 km (209 mi)NW of epicenterTulagi(pop: 1,750)II: Very weakCentral ProvinceSolomon Islands340 km (211 mi)W of epicenterTandai(pop: 24,600)II: Very weakGuadalcanal ProvinceSolomon Islands340 km (211 mi)W of epicenterHoniara(pop: 56,300)II: Very weakHoniaraSolomon Islands354 km (220 mi)W of epicenterMalango(pop: 10,500)II: Very weakGuadalcanal ProvinceSolomon Islands448 km (278 mi)NW of epicenterBuala(pop: 2,700)II: Very weakIsabel ProvinceSolomon Islands630 km (391 mi)SE of epicenterSola(pop: 1,170)II: Very weakTorba ProvinceVanuatu675 km (419 mi)SE of epicenterPort-Olry(pop: 1,300)II: Very weakSanma ProvinceVanuatu684 km (425 mi)SE of epicenterHog Harbour(pop: 1000)I: Not feltSanma ProvinceVanuatu720 km (448 mi)SE of epicenterLuganville(pop: 13,400)I: Not feltSanma ProvinceVanuatuNotes:(*) Shaking intensity according to the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) and estimated using seismic models.User-reports for this quakeThere are no user reports for this quake yet.If you felt it, be the first to report it!Get the Android appCompare Quake DataData for the same earthquake as reported by different agenciesThe more agencies report about the same quake and post similar data, the more confidence you can have in the data.

When aftershocks are detected, we will update this section.What are aftershocks?Larger earthquakes (above magnitude 5 or so) such as this one are usually followed by smaller ones known as aftershocks that occur in the same area during the days, weeks, months or even years after the main shock.[More info]What about this quake?Based on its magnitude, the fault that was active during the quake likely ruptured beneath a surface area of approximately 16 km2 (6 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 7 km (4 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)Jun 27, 2026 11:23 am (Universal Time)7 minutes ago5.210 km0 km - This quakeSolomon IslandsMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake7 minutes agoJun 27, 2026 11:23 GMT / Jun 27, 2026 11:23 am (Universal Time)Lat / Lng: -10.622 / 162.81: Solomon IslandsSource: GFZDetail info | You felt it? - Report it!',5.2,52, '#bb202a', 0.9,1.5, '#bb202a', 0.27);map2.addToMap('thisQuake',-10.622,162.81,'7 minutes ago: Mag. 5.2, Solomon Islands','Earthquake: Mag 5.2 / 10 km (6.2 mi) depth7 minutes agoJun 27, 2026 11:23 GMT / Jun 27, 2026 11:23 am (Universal Time)Lat / Lng: -10.622 / 162.81: Solomon IslandsSource: GFZDetail info | You felt it? - Report it!','default'); // this will be local to this table obj function putQuakeOnMap(id,lat,lon,time,title,html,mag,zIndex) { qTableOlder.putQuakeOnMap(id,lat,lon,time,title,html,mag,zIndex); } map2.circleScale=0.5;qTableOlder.usePalette=1;qTableOlder.startVal=qTableOlder.referenceTime-(80*365.25*86400);qTableOlder.endVal=qTableOlder.referenceTime; qTableOlder.assignMap(map2); (async function(){await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r,4000));map2.map.setZoom(7)})(); })(); (async function(){while(typeof mkRequest=="undefined")await new Promise(r=>setTimeout(r,500));mkRequest("https://server1.allquakes.com/api/getPrevious.php?quakeId=23139192","get","",function(httpObj){let r=httpObj.responseText,d=document;if(""!=r&&200==httpObj.status){let o=JSON.parse(r);if(!o){d.getElementById("olderQuakesSection").remove();return};let table=d.getElementById("qTableOlder");table.innerHTML+=o.tableRows,qTableOlder.alternateBg(),d.getElementById("placeholder_largestQText").innerHTML=o.html,d.getElementById("sectionPreviousCWrap").style.display="",eval(o.js)}})})();]]>Try our free app!Android | iOS versionSupport Us – Help Us Enhance Our Services!We’re passionate about delivering the latest volcano and earthquake data from around the globe — just for you.
