This is the only travel guidebook available entirely dedicated to Vanuatu - covers all the island groups - explores all options from resort holidays to home-stay in traditional villages - insightful information on diving, island hopping, bushwalking and Melanesian culture. Vanuatu is not as well-known as other South Pacific destinations, but it offers the same attractions; diving, island hopping, bushwalking and relatively unscathed Melanesian culture. The Naghol ('land diving') ceremony of Pentecost Island is the great-great grandparent of bungee jumping. Unlike Lonely Planet's competitor, Moon, we devote a whole guidebook to Vanuatu (Moon covers it in the 'South Pacific Handbook').
