Port Vila Vanuatu

Port Vila is the capital city of Vanuatu, situated on the south coast of the island of Efate. It has the country's most important harbour and airport, Bauerfield International, making it the nation's economic and commercial centre. During World War II, Port Vila was an American and Australian airbase. In 1987, a cyclone severely damaged the city.

Free of skyscraper office blocks, Port Vila is set within a magnificent natural harbour. It is a charming potpourri of cultures, blending elements of Melanesian, English, French and Chinese tastes. Its Cultural Center has one of the most extensive Pacific artifact collections in the world. There are also plenty of opportunities for active visitors, especially those interested in watersports.
