1 week in Vanuatu

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Vanuatu

Hi,

Very early stages of planning and late as well. will be flying into port vila for a week to week and half early december and wonder the best thing to maximize our time. We are divers, which is never cheap, but backpackers as well, like beaches, snorkelling and trekking, not so much into partying. like to get off the beaten track but difficult with such short time. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. hoping maybe to visit 2 islands if time permits.

thanks

Get to Santo as soon as you can - it offers all the things you want.

Diving is great from Santo. To dive on the President Coolidge you just walk out - no need to go by boat. This makes a relatively cheap dive trip.
