Were all in the southern hemisphere down here Deleted User01 so our summer is at xmas. Vanuatu is only a bit over a 2 hour flight for me so a few times a year i just think 'i need fresh kava' ..so i book a flight & go. Very nice temps this time of year here now being the south pacific.Deleted User01 said:

Theres probably a few hundred nakamals in Port Vila...most are simply tin sheds. I just turn a blind eye to everything, you have to. That said ive worked in 5 star restaurants in maint & seen much worse. Like you say, if your a bit delicate then they are not for you. Just join in & listen to the kava. Tourists ask me why i would even think of sitting in these dark nakamals at night not realising that the kava they were tasting in their flash hotel as a demonstration comes from the exact same nakamals. Outside of the once on Tanna where i drank spring water, ive never once been crook from any nakamal in vila. Their tap water is perfect, as good or better than 1st world country.Deleted User01 said:
Not really that much to do although its built up like there is. You can visit the water fall or blue swimming hole or hire a scooter/car but really its just sleepy sort of pacific island town. If you go to the volcano on tanna its one of the best sights ive seen however thats maybe $400 extra airfare on an island plane (aussie & kiwi pilots) You really need to stay overnight to see it erupting in the dark. Most nakamals in vila open around 4pm with one or 2 opening at 2-3. Really i just sleep & do nothing until then.kavadude said:
