Activities & Things to Do at Friendly Beach Vanuatu

Not that travellers will ever get bored of swimming off the black sand beach, relaxing on sun-loungers with a cocktail on rinse-repeat, but… there’s still so much to see, do, eat and experiences outside this gem of a resort. Obviously, let’s address the biggest reason to come to Tanna and this resort? To experience the majesty of a live, rumbling volcano in all its glory, so we’ll get a visit to Mount Yasur a definite tick yes! it’s an incredible experience and pro tip, it gets better in the evening as the lava flows come into strong contrast against the fading light. Then, sign up for a visit to the local village – it’s a great way to get to know a new culture, especially one as old as Melanesia. For cultural enthusiasts who want to go off the reservation, get a first-hand experience of the John Frum, Vanuatu’s very own ‘cargo cult’. Believing that following a mythical American WWII airman would provide the islanders with deliverance in the form of houses, food, clothes and necessities, this proto-religion gained a huge following in the tens of thousands in the early 1900s. Then, there’s the quiet island life – besides the volcano, the ash fields, and the black sand beaches, Tanna is a picture-perfect sample of a quiet, beautiful tropical island. Emphasis on picture-perfect. For people looking for more excitement, Port Vila is the way. For a list of things to do in and around Tanna, check out our FAQs section.
