kingdom 03:37 UTC 04 May 2011 | Hi, Looking to book a week or so holiday in Vanuatu. Really looking for a nice beach and a chilled time, no adventure, just beach time. Any pointers on nice beaches, areas and accomondation would be great. Thanks |

madmanascar 09:27 UTC 06 Jun 2011 | I do not know if my late reply is relevant now but I would recommend you Champagne Beach in Santo Island. It is not rocky. The sea is very beautiful and it is not rocky at all. There is a beautiful landscape of the mountain nearby and the waters are pure clear. Another good beach is in Port Orly ( also in Santo ). And there is a village nearby catering for tourists with accommodation and restaurant too. | 2
