Product Description

Product Description
This is the only travel guidebook available entirely dedicated to Vanuatu - covers all the island groups - explores all options from resort holidays to home-stay in traditional villages - insightful information on diving, island hopping, bushwalking and Melanesian culture. Vanuatu is not as well-known as other South Pacific destinations, but it offers the same attractions; diving, island hopping, bushwalking and relatively unscathed Melanesian culture. The Naghol ('land diving') ceremony of Pentecost Island is the great-great grandparent of bungee jumping. Unlike Lonely Planet's competitor, Moon, we devote a whole guidebook to Vanuatu (Moon covers it in the 'South Pacific Handbook').

4.0 out of 5 stars An honest yet sometimes unsettling insight into Vanuatu!, 27 Mar 2001
By A Customer
I have the privilege of going to live in Vanuatu for three months in August, teaching English voluntarily. And, although it won't all be sunshine and snorkelling, a quick in-depth insight into what I might expect of living in an entirely different culture was what I needed. Cue the reliable lonely planet guide, always on hand when you need one, assessing every inch of the destination. What I especially liked about this guide was it's honesty: although it revealed a history littered with cannibalism and 'blackbirding', it encompassed every acpect of what I now know to be a beautiful, respectful and unharmed culture. It didn't shy away from those 'unacceptable in the western world' things we may grimace and groan at, and included relevant photographs at the points where you thought : "I wonder what that looks like?" As for the general traveller, the size of vanuatu's islands means that every kava bar, cafe, unspoilt beach and friendly household has already been explored and evaluated! All in all, a guide where I didn't have a 'skip this' section - all thoroughly readable and enthralling.
