Vanuatu Cruises

Vanuatu is made up of more than 80 islands that are spread across the South Pacific around 350 miles off the coast of Australia.

The islands are some of the most popular amongst the cruise lines that operate in the Pacific region, with stunning natural scenery and plenty of opportunities to embrace local culture as you spend time meeting tribal communities who call the islands their home.

Whilst there are a number of different destinations that you might expect to visit on a trip to Vanuatu, one of the most popular is the capital city of Port Vila which is found on the island of Efate.

During time in the city, you can explore a number of tourist attractions, which include the unique memorial near to the parliament buildings and the Vanuatu Cultural Centre and National Museum, where there is the chance to examine a range of artefacts that showcase different aspects of local culture.

The cosmopolitan and colourful capital is also home to a range of shops and restaurants where you can pick up some hand-made crafts or see what island dining is all about.

Vanuatu is made up of more than 80 islands that are spread across the South Pacific around 350 miles off the coast of Australia.

The cosmopolitan and colourful capital is also home to a range of shops and restaurants where you can pick up some hand-made crafts or see what island dining is all about.

Whilst in Port Vila, you could also head just outside the city limits to try your hand at snorkelling or diving off the coast with Vanuatu – like many Pacific islands – featuring various reefs off the coast.

You might also fancy a trip on a glass bottomed boat if you want to keep your feet dry, or can head inland to enjoy a stroll through botanical gardens or a hike through impressive rainforests to marvel at stunning waterfall.

An action-packed dune buggy ride is the perfect option if you would consider yourself to be something of a thrillseeker, whilst if you prefer to take things a bit easier, a visit to the traditional village of Iarofa might be more up your street.

Other popular ports include the impressive sands around Champagne Beach, Mystery Island, where you can take a stroll through the unspoiled landscapes of the uninhabited island or visit the market set up by locals from nearby Aneityum and Luganville – the second largest city in the country.

Situated on Espiritu Santo, the city was the base for tens of thousands of American military personnel during the Second World Ward, and the wreck of the SS President Coolidge – which was used a troopship before being sunk in 1942 – is now one of the top diving sites in the Pacific. Million Dollar Point, where thousands of tonnes of military equipment was dumped after the war, is also popular.
