Efate
Island
Port Vila is located on Vanuatu's main administrative island of
Efate. The island is beautiful, tropical, covered in lush vegetation and palm trees that line the white sandy
beaches dotted around the island. To call this town picturesque is an
understatement.
Santo
Island
The largest in Vanuatu island archipelago is called Espiritu Santo
island, also known simply as Santo. As Efate and other 80+ islands, Santo is covered in lush vegetation and
surrounded by amazing beaches of soft sand. This gorgeous island is popular with all travellers. It is the divers,
however, that really love Santo's diving sites, including the SS President Coolidge wreck, the most intact sunken
WWII ship in the world.
Island
Hopping
While islands like Efate and Santo have become travel destinations
unto themselves, there are still 81 other Vanuatu islands to explore, many of them completely ninhabited. The best
way to explore as many as you like and can afford, is by doing island hopping. By moving from island to island
during your stay, you will get access to the widest range of attractions and enjoyment. This can be done by air and
cruises.
