A place you should consider in any Scuba Diving travel plans is visiting Vanuatu. A diver’s paradise, with incredible coral, fish life and wrecks.
Santo dives include the SS President Coolidge – the largest divable wreck in the world; it hit a mine and sank just off the beach at Santo Island, in 80 degree water and up to 100′ visability.

Also on Santo is “Million-Dollar Point,” with loads of WWII military equipment bulldozed off the reef at the end of the war. Midway between Australia and Hawaii, the stunning beauty of Espiritu Santo Island will blow you away.
More to come …
Vanuatu is unique in many ways – one being that it is the only place on earth that England and France ruled jointly rather than fight a war over
And when you see what a fabulous place Vanuatu is, it is not hard to understand why.
It’s biggest assets are is magnificent natural splendour and its people – if you cannot be happy and relaxed in Vanuatu, you will never be happy anywhere.
For an amazing family holiday or honeymoon, Vanuatu holidays take some beating. An archipelago of 83 islands, Vanuatu is located in the South Pacific Ocean near Fiji, New Caledonia, and east of Australia
Vanuatu gained independence from its former colonial rulers, England and France, on 30 July, 1980.
In different categories we will share some secrets of this amazing country, plus some tales from the 6 years I lived there!
Did You Know … Vanuatu has the world’s “First Underwater Post Office?”
You buy special waterproof postcards available from shops on land. Then, you scuba dive three metres down to have your postcards embossed with a waterproof stamp by one of four dive-accredited postal workers.
This unique “Post Office” was specially created by Vanuatu Post to celebrate Vanuatu’s status as a marine paradise.
