General Information

What to bring

• Insect repellent *
• Sunscreen
• Enough cash to cover accommodation, activities and transport (there are no banks or EFTPOS facilities in the village)
• Snack-food, apart from fruit, isn't readily available in the village, so guests are advised to bring their own.
• For rainy days and extra hot days (Vanuatu has a tropical climate), bringing a book to read might be a good idea.
• In the cool season (May to October), a jumper and long pants might be handy for the evenings.
• For bush-walks and garden tours 'walking shoes' of some kind are advised.
• For snorkelling, reef shoes would be handy but not essential.

* It is advisable to take anti malarials when travelling outside of Port Vila. Check with your doctor.

Respecting local culture
Paunangisu is a traditional village. Please respect local culture by wearing appropriate clothing and swimming attire. For women this means knee length dresses and shorts with modest blouses. Ni-Vanuatu women typically swim in long shorts and T-shirts or sarongs.

Telecommunications
Both Digicel and TVL operate in North Efate although coverage can be unreliable. There is no TV or internet access in the village. If you need internet it would be best to use data on your phone.
