Vanuatu Charter Itinerary

Vanuatu Itinerary

Vanuatu Yacht Charter
A week through Vanuatu, an archipelago of fire and water where active volcanoes, blue holes and living tradition make for one of the Pacific’s most extraordinary voyages. From the harbours of Efate to the crater rim of Mount Yasur, this route pairs raw natural drama with pristine beaches and warm culture. Expect glowing volcanoes and crystal blue holes, wartime wrecks and champagne sands, an adventure like no other.

Every route we shape is a starting point, not a fixed schedule. Stay a second day where the light is right, move with the weather, or follow a captain to a quieter cove. What follows is one considered way to read it; the rest we tailor to you.
Day 1

Port Vila

Step aboard at Port Vila on Efate, Vanuatu’s relaxed capital set around a beautiful harbour. Explore its colourful market and waterfront, then set sail and anchor off a quiet island for a first swim.
