Adventure Magazine|December 2020 - January 2021
Vanuatu’s outer islands are rich in culture, landscape and adventure, but before you book your flights and hop over to this tropical paradise, it’s important to get some tips to help you understand the nuance of this family of islands. Here are some things you need to know before booking your Vanuatu escape.
8 TIPS FOR VISITING THE OUTER ISLANDS OF VANUATU
Get used to island time

Make sure you don’t bring your traditional approach to time and tourism to Vanuatu. Sure, you may be told your charter flight will leave the outer island airport at 2pm, or that your driver will pick you up at 11am, but don’t be mad if nobody arrives on time. It’s not done out of spite, or laziness, there’s just no reason to rush. If you always keep a good book tucked away in your backpack, or a deck of cards, you’ll be just fine. Have a couple of buffer days at the end of your trip as well, just in case!

Tell your friends and family you’ll be back soon, you’re going off-grid
