Efate

Efate is Vanuatu's main island, home to the capital Port Vila, the international airport, a couple of wonderful retreats and a handful of fabulous restaurants. The island is undoubtedly where visitors will want to spend some of their time.

Port Vila is located around a magnificent natural harbour and is the only town on the island. It boasts some of the South Pacific's best restaurants, taking full advantage of its pot-pourri of cultures to blend the best elements of Melanesian, English, French and Chinese tastes.

Open 24 hours a day, six days a week, the delightful market is a great place to try the local food and meet the local people.

Efate has a rugged coastline and rolling verdant countryside, fast flowing rivers, cascading waterfalls, isolated sandy bays and lagoons.
