Efate island

Ultimate guide (March 2024)
Efate is the main island of Vanuatu. It hosts the capital town of Port Vila with its international airport. In a contrast to common prejudices, there are some good beaches, though the coastline is mostly rocky. But on the other hand, the snorkeling and diving are perfect almost everywhere. As for the notable attractions, only waterfalls worth a visit. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]
