Australia and New Zealand to Port Vila Bauerfield International Airport.

which makes it perfect for a relaxing getaway. Visitors to this island nation can keep busy with a variety of fun
and exciting holiday activities. Want a cheap holiday? Find very cheap holidays at lots of resorts.
Vanuatu Holiday
Vanuatu is rich in culture and traditions far different from those of the
western world. On your Vanuatu holiday you can see and experience local traditions like hava drinking, Rom dancing,
no tipping and not haggling in the marketplace. Land dive on Pentecost island is one the best known Vanuatu
traditions, which happens only during April and May. Most islands in Vanuatu are strong in terms of traditions and
practices, some of which you will innevitably experience on your holiday in Vanuatu.
Vanuatu Islands
The island nation of Vanuatu is made up of more than 80 islands and numerous
smaller islets. The islands of Efate and Santo have become destinations unto themselves, with their size,
importance and numerous sightseeing spots and other activities. Not to mention being home to Port Vila and
Luganville cities respectively, which alone offer great many enjoyments to be had. But there still exists a
plethora of other islands to explore, many of them completely uninhabited.
While many of Vanuatu islands are relatively inaccessible, one of the best ways to appreciate their unique and
natural beauty is to take a cruise among the islands. The other option is to do some island hopping, moving from
island to island, which will give you the widest range of attractions and enjoyment.
For the lovers of island holidays, South Pacific offers a great range of
options to explore many island nations located throughout the South Pacific region. These include Fiji, New
Caledonia, Solomon Islands and Nauru, to name a few.
Vanuatu Resorts
Visitors to Vanuatu will find a wide range of resorts where to stay. Whether
you crave affordable accommodations, quaint bungalows, resort apartments, or even hotels in Vanuatu, you will
find the right options for you. Bungalows are the traditional style of housing in the islands, so you'll find that
majority of Vanuatu resorts and hotels offer bungalows, rather than traditional rooms. Numerous resort in and
around Port Vila provide great holiday accommodation and amenities. There are also many resorts spread out through
the rural portions of Efate island, almost all of which offer you incredible access to the beach, as well as the
best service and amenities.
Port Vila
When planning your holiday in Vanuatu you will innevitably arrive first to
Port Vila, the capital city and gateway to Vanuatu. Located on the southern shores of Efate island, Port Vila has
far more to offer to Vanuatu visitors than the regular sand and water. Tourist can find many things to see and do
in and out of the city, things that they wouldn't be able to experience elsewhere. You will find a beautiful blend
of cultures in Port Vila - Asian, French, English, and Melanesian cultures all blend in with this beautiful land
and interesting people. Visit downtown Port Vila for the best shopping and local handicrafts, head to the ocean for
more enjoyment, and then come back to one of the many Port Vila restaurants for a fine dining, or cafes for a quick
snack.
The trendy and busy downtown area of Port Vila is home to dozens
of restaurants that offer everything from standard bar and grill items to fancy French cuisine. Everywhere diners
go however they will find that foods have been transformed, and “fusion” cuisine is the true order of the day.
Somehow a simple cup of coffee or fruity cool beverage ends up tasting fabulous when it is sipped alongside, or
looking out over, one of the many beautiful scenes that make up the city of Port Vila. At night the town and
harbour become alive with night bars and restaurants. For those who enjoy gaming there are also two casinos in Port
Vila - Club 21 and Palms Casino.
Efate Island
Efate island is beautiful, tropical, laid back paradise, covered in lush
vegetation and palm trees that line the white sandy beaches. If you wander outside of Port Vila and take Round the
island tour, you will discover quaint little villages that will welcome you with a tea or coffee and a snack, where
you can experience the traditional Melanesian hospitality. Along the way you will discover many hidden coves and
pristine white sand beaches, unspoiled by mass tourism. On the northern part of the island you will even enjoy the
sights of small offshore islands next to Efate. All part of your tour around the island.
For travel on Efate island outside of Port Vila, 4x4 vehicles are almost
required. Coastal roads are easier to navigate and can be accessed with bicycles and motorcycles; however, the
inland portions require the use of an off road vehicle much of the year.
