Nendo (or more exactly Nendö) is the largest of the Santa Cruz Islands, located in the Temotu province of the Solomon Islands. The island is also known as Santa Cruz, Ndeni, Nitendi or Ndende. The name ''Santa Cruz'' was given to the island in 1595 by the Spanish navigator Álvaro de Mendaña, who unsuccessfully started a colony there. ==Geography== Located at (10°25'12" S. lat., 165°30' E. long.), Nendö is 40 km (25 mi.) long and 22 km (14 mi.) wide. Its land area is 505.5 km² (195 sq. mi.). The highest point on the island is 549 m (1,801 ft.) above sea level. The two small islands of Malo and Nibanga (also called ''Tömotu Neo'' and ''Tömotu Noi''), lie about 1 km (0.6 mi.) distant: Malo to the northwest, Nibanga to the southeast. Lata, located in the northwestern part of the island, is its chief town and the provincial capital.
