Top Activities on the Ground in Vanuatu

Launch into the air, soar across deep ravines, and find sweeping views over Mele Bay on a Port Vila zipline tour in the Vanuatu jungle. Since traveling to the start of the zipline course means an adventurous 4WD trip through the forest, you’ll see a rugged side of the island without planning a separate jungle tour, then descend a series of six ziplines that total .9 miles (1.4 km.).

Adventure seekers can only explore so much of Vanuatu by foot alone. To see more sights while pumping up the adrenaline, book a thrilling small-group buggy tour. These low, open-air vehicles allow you to see Vanuatu from a different vantage point and their tough tires allow you to drive through the jungle and splash through mud trails. You'll visit Eton Blue Lagoon and go snorkeling. A barbecue lunch and time for duty-free shopping are included.

Swim in Vanuatu on a full-day trip to the Eton Blue Lagoon, Crystal Blue Lagoon, and Rarru Cascades that includes a morning tea and barbecue lunch. Choosing a tour that’s fully focused on spectacular nature and wildlife ensures time to cover a range of settings, for a scenic introduction to Vanuatu’s beaches and jungle in just one day of exploring.

Set out on foot to explore Vanuatu’s jungle trails, villages, beaches, and plantations on a hiking tour that can be as relaxed—or challenging—as you want. A wide range of available trails that go from gentle waterfall hikes to more difficult jungle tracks means the day will be tailored to your group, going beyond the island’s tourist sites for a glimpse of lush nature and rural communities.

Whether you’re travelling children or you want a change of pace from the typical nature walks and bus tours, sign up for the Bridges of Eden. This challenging suspension bridge course on the Rentapau River is a fun way for the family to discover the Vanuatu rainforest. Clamber across the bridges and fly down the zipline to the end of the circuit – or, if you want to take things slow, just enjoy a leisurely swim in the river or walk through the dense Efate bush.

See two of Vanuatu's most beautiful spots on Efate island during this half-day combo tour. The day begins with a leisurely swim in the crystalline waters of Eton Blue Lagoon. Next, you'll head to the Rarru Cascades in Port Vila. Enjoy postcard-perfect views of the majestic waterfall and discover an emerald green swimming pool hidden in the middle of the canopies. A duty-free shopping excursion rounds out the tour.

The only adventure park activity in Vanuatu for adrenalin seekers. But good for mild adventure to extreme adventure - set your own level. Perfect for the whole family and all ages. Set in a stunning location full of rainforest and sparkling views of the reef far below.

Experience one of Efate's outer islands through a choice of two half day treks and snorkeling in a marine conservation area. The Volcano Walk takes 3 ½ hours on average. Once atop the highest of Nguna’s extinct volcanoes, Mt Taputaora (593m), you are rewarded with sweeping views across the Shepherd Islands to the north, and south to Efate. The intriguing (and easier) Environment Walk takes about 3 hours and is a good option for families. Explore a community conservation area at Nguna’s smallest village - a fascinating mixture of old forest, historic relics and community gardens. After the morning walk, enjoy a buffet lunch by the beach and then snorkel Nguna’s famous marine conservation area. Expect lots of fish, maybe the occasional turtle, and plenty of hard corals and small canyons and crevasses to explore.
