While working on your tan in Port Vila is a great way to spend the day, there's plenty of beauty to be found outside of the big Vanuatu hotels. On the ... read more...


  1. Mount Yasur, the world's most active open volcano, is restlessly boiling away on Tanna Island, a 45-minute flight from Port Vila. How approachable does it appear to be? You can drive almost to the top — it's about a 10-minute walk from the parking area to the rim of a constantly erupting volcano. The experience of climbing the peak is one you'll never forget, as liquid rock gleams crimson when flung into the air, and the rumbling and hiss of expelling gases creates one of the best natural phenomena on the planet. Some tourists find Yasur frightening, while others find him fascinating.


    Photographers are overjoyed by the prospect of capturing nature at its most ferocious from such an accessible vantage point. For the greatest results, a stable tripod is required. Only before sunrise and for an hour or two after dusk are the best times to visit Yasur. The supreme thrill is total darkness. Yasur's activity level fluctuates between risky and reasonably tranquil. Check the most recent alert level to see if it's more active following the wet season. Access to the volcano will be denied if it reaches activity levels three or four. This active volcano is one of Vanuatu's top tourist attractions.

  2. Luganville is Vanuatu's "second city," with a long, relaxing key street that runs parallel to the waterfront. The open-air market is one of them; it is open 24 hours a day, except on Sunday nights, and it sells fresh fruit, vegetables, and a variety of other items that the residents of Santo bring from their community gardens. While in town, you should have some Kava at one of the local Nakamals.The Greenlight Kava bar next to the Unity Shell petrol station is a popular Nakamal among the local expatriate population. The expatriates that frequent the greenlight are usually fairly cordial and willing to engage a tourist in discussion and impart a little of their western viewpoint on life in Santo.


    The healing water, located on the shore on a wharf right on the major route between the airport and town, is a new attraction. A taxi from town will cost you between 150 and 200 vatu. Hundreds of people have rushed to swim and bathe in this water since rumors arose that it may heal cancer and other ailments. The water is a tidal spring, thus it's best to visit at low tide. Even if you are doubtful of the medical benefits, the website has a lovely environment and is worth visiting. Everyone is welcome as long as they are quiet and respectful. The landowner has announced that drinking and swimming in the water is free because it is a gift from God.

  3. Malekula, shaped like a sitting dog, has two uplands sections connected by 'the dog's neck.' It is one of Vanuatu's top tourist attractions. The highlands are difficult and unwelcoming, rising to above 800 meters and crisscrossed by thin valleys. The Big Nambas and Small Nambas are two of Malekula's most important cultural groupings, called after the size of the men's Namba (penis scabbard). Small Nambas men wrap one leaf of dried fiber around their penis and insert it inside a bark belt.

    Their semi-kastom communities are built around Tamtam, ready to pound out a rhythm and a dancing location. Big Nambas men wrap enormous purple pandanus fibers around their penis, guarding the loose ends with a fat bark belt and exposing their testicles. They had such a fantastic battle, like the reputation, that no tourists dared to enter their domain. Even police operations that were supposed to punish them for murdering businesspeople were ambushed and scattered. They had a stone hearth in which undesirable visitors were ceremoniously roasted and consumed.

  4. The Condominium administration established the Vanuatu Cultural Centre (or "Kaljoral Senta" in Bislama, a Creole language) in 1959 in Port Vila, Vanuatu. Its purpose is to "promote, maintain, and preserve the various components of Vanuatu's culture."A must-see when visiting Vanuatu!

  5. Port Vila, often known as Vila, is the capital and largest city of Vanuatu, located in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. Port-Vila is the island group's commercial center and is located on Mélé Bay on the southwest coast of Éfaté. Despite its French exterior, the town's population is multicultural, with Ni-Vanuatu, British, French, Chinese, and Vietnamese residents. The town features hospitals, hotels, casinos, marketplaces and shopping areas, a sports stadium, a cultural center, a teacher-training institution, a University of the South Pacific campus, and various meat- and fish-processing businesses.


    Port Vila is a breathtakingly concise but forceful city that stands on the gorgeous Vila Bay and a sequence of lagoons, beaches, and off-coast islands. It's a little ragged around the edges, with a few traffic-heavy high ways allowing access to a plethora of souvenirs, shops, and seaside restaurants and cafes with numerous lingering French influences. Underneath this façade is an odd mix of vacationers, cruise ship day-trippers, expats, and yachties, as well as ni-Van drawn from all around the islands. This is Vanuatu's busiest metropolis, offering a dizzying array of travel and adventure activities, as well as numerous superb restaurants, pubs, shops, banks, and marketplaces.

    Tanna


    If you only visit one island outside of Efate, make it this one. Tanna is a spectacular location, home to the world's most active volcano, gorgeous isolated beaches, and some of Vanuatu's most wonderful traditional rural life. Tanna became one of the greatest tourist destinations in Vanuatu as a result of all of these features. Aside from the rampaging Mt Yasur, the landscape features enormous rainforests, coffee plantations, mountains, hot springs, blue holes, and waterfalls, with native chiefs establishing marine and wildlife protection areas in some areas.


    Kastom is significant in traditional villages, where all natural occurrences have the fourth dimension of mysticism and mystique, but odd cargo cults (particularly, John Frum and Prince Philip) still maintain sway in many places. Lenakel is the main town, and it has a market, a port, a few stores, and a hospital. The volcano and the majority of the island's essential bungalows are roughly 30 kilometers southeast on the bumpy cross-island road through a central lush, thick forest called Middlebush. On its way to Port Resolution, the 'road' passes across Mt Yasur's major ash plain.
