The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Float above a seafloor that bubbles with volcanic gas — nature's own champagne flute. Champagne Beach is consistently ranked among the South Pacific's most breathtaking stretches of white sand and turquoise water, with world-class snorkelling right off the shore.
Descend into electric-blue cathedral pools fed by ancient underground springs — Vanuatu's blue holes are among the most visually surreal natural wonders in the Pacific. Nanda and Matevulu Blue Holes glow an otherworldly cobalt that photographs can barely do justice.
Slip beneath the surface at one of the Pacific's most haunting and historically charged dive sites — where the US military bulldozed millions of dollars' worth of Jeeps, bulldozers, and aircraft into the sea in 1945. Today it's a spectacular artificial reef teeming with marine life.
Journey north along Espiritu Santo's jungle-fringed coast to Port Olry — a remote Francophone fishing village with a beach so perfect it rivals Champagne Bay itself. Share a traditional Ni-Vanuatu lunch with locals and swim in total seclusion.
Espiritu Santo harbours one of the Pacific's last healthy dugong populations — snorkelling alongside these gentle, ancient mariners in open water is a wildlife encounter that belongs on every serious traveller's life list.
The definitive Espiritu Santo day — swim electric-blue freshwater springs, bask on the South Pacific's most iconic beach, and snorkel a submerged WWII arsenal, all in a single private full-day journey across this extraordinary island.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
