Surfing spots

For those looking for a little more of a surfing challenge while on Vanuatu holiday, there are a few less-than-accessible surfing spots, but it will take a little asking to find out where they are and get a ride to take you out there. You also need to be prepared to be patient when it comes to waiting out a wave. Enough surfing happens in Vanuatu that you can easily find out the latest information in swell size, wind direction and surf reports while on vacation.

Surfing beginners

The rest of the surfers, like those who have never tried and those who have just recently begun to surf, will enjoy the gentle waves in Vanuatu. The waves provide you with enough of a wave to get you in toward the land, but they will not take advantage of you. Additionally, there are several instructors, and locals, who will gladly help you begin to surf, starting with learning the positions and what to do while out in the water.

Vanuatu is a good destination for the beginner surfers, to learn surfing in gentle waves.

Kite surfing in Vanuatu

If you really enjoy surfing or would like to try something new, kite surfing is also available at many resorts and beach locations. If gear is not readily provided or if you are unsure about whether or not gear will be made available, it is best to be prepared to bring your own if you have it.

Although one of the most popular islands because it is the location of the capital, Port Vila, Efate is not the only island where you can catch a wave in Vanuatu.
