Tourism in Vanuatu What does Vanuatu offer that other island destinations don't? Vanuatu's key selling point is the ability to SAFELY visit one of the most pristine Melanesian cultures in the world. There are communities in the out-islands that are unchanged from their cultural way of life dating back thousands of years. Unlike other Melanesian countries where political and social strife have made tourism a risky affair for both the visitors and the business owners, Vanuatu is untroubled by ethnic or political strife. Visitors are welcome and the people are friendly.

Pacific Culture Vanuatu, Fiji Islands, Solomon Islands Home The Collection Go to Order Page Mailing List ... Online ordering now available for Deposit/Standing order account holders! Limited Edition Vanuatu has a very rich and diverse cultural tradition which can be seen through dance, ceremonies, artifacts and architecture. Many traditions are still maintained and are incorporated into everyday life in the Islands. Within Vanuatu's Cultural Series, this se-tenant strip of stamps shows a range of masks from different islands in Vanuatu from Epi northwards. The southern group of islands do not use masks and tend to use face and body paint instead. Masks are used for several reasons, in dance, grade taking ceremonies or secret societies as part of the strong traditional structure within Vanuatu. The variety of masks is enormous in terms of design and materials which can be wood, plant fibres, moulded clay and even cobwebs. The masks can take the form of the human face or spirits and sometimes have animals, fish or bird forms as part of the design and vary from covering the face to the whole body like a cloak as part of the overall costume. The less ritually important masks can be re-used, but others are destroyed after the ceremony to retain the spirituality of the occasion. The masks shown in this issue can be seen at the Cultural Centre in Port Vila. The Fijians still retain many of their traditional customs, one of the most important being the "Yaqona" ceremony as seen in the $3.00 stamp. This formal ceremony precedes any event of importance and is a mark of great honour and respect to the recipient. The brew has slight narcotic properties and is made from the pounded root of "Piper Methysticum" mixed with water. In other Pacific countries Yaqona is known as Kava.

iWon Travel Oceania Vanuatu Powered by HISTORY and CULTURE History Culture History Some of the islands have been populated continuously for thousands of years and others are still uninhabited today. The earliest known settlement was on Malo Island, where pottery at least 4000 years old has been unearthed. Prehistoric cultures in Vanuatu were plagued by inter-tribal warfare. The tribes' rich spiritual life attributed all natural and human-induced bad luck or calamities to sorcery, and they staged lavish festivals to appease the gods. The elaborate burial chamber of a nobleman buried in AD1265 was excavated on Eretoka Island, off the coast of Efate, and bears evidence of human sacrifice. By far the greatest misery inflicted on the islanders was 'blackbirding', the South Seas' own version of slavery that continued into the early years of the 20th century. Thousands of ni-Vanuatu were persuaded and downright kidnapped to work on the sugar and cotton plantations of Queensland and Fiji, and many never returned. WWII brought a massive influx of US military personnel to Efate and Santo, which became crucial bases in the Pacific War. The country was awash with American know-how and dollars, and many ni-Vanuatu earned real wages for the first time in their lives. More importantly, the islanders observed black Americans enjoying the material benefits and luxuries afforded the whites, and this played no small part in their agitation for independence. In the late 1960s the Nagriamel movement began to attract thousands of followers, mostly in the northern islands. Its leader was Chief President Moses (Jimmy Tupou Patuntun Stevens), and it was originally confined to obtaining rights to the 'dark bush', the land Europeans had never claimed or settled. Nagriamel became increasingly politicised, however, and petitioned the United Nations in 1971 for an 'act of free choice' over the archipelago's independence. Britain and France agreed that under the terms of the Condominium neither would withdraw without the other, which became a recipe for inaction. They were finally dragged to c onstitutional reform by 1974-75, and as the islanders agitated for further rights they conceded to elections. Condominium bureaucrats could see the writing on the sand by then - even they were aware of the stink of colonialism in the modern world.

Vanuatu offers visitors a number of extraordinary natural sites, including active volcanoes, secluded islands, turquoise lagoons, stunning bays, coral reefs, beautiful flora and fauna, lush tropical forests, and a unique traditional culture, to which we gives you access. Many places offer travellers "eco-tourism", but if it is to be experienced anywhere in the world, it is here in the islands of Vanuatu. The Vanuatu Island Bungalows Association (VIBA) is a non profit organisation established to develop sustainable eco-tourism in Vanuatu islands. VIBA members are all local land owners having established accommodation and/or tours for visitors. The operations, generally called as "Bungalows" are basic, small and none has more than 10 rooms, the average size being 4 rooms. They are run by indigenous managers with little training in hospitality. Custom and Culture of Vanuatu People on each of the islands have firmly held their customs and culture through Christianity and a period of colonisation. Today, Vanuatu is among only a handful of places in the world where visitors can discover and experience traditions that have remained essentially unchanged for centuries. How to visit the authentic Vanuatu Flights to Vanuatu are available from Australia (Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne), New Caledonia (Noumea), New Zealand (Auckland), Fiji (Nadi). There is a minimum of 2 international flights every day for a flexible holiday.

From Lonely Planet Lonely Planet guide to Vanuatu and the world Order Now Vanuatu Culture The ni-Vanuatu pride themselves on their musical instruments, of which the tamtam - also called the slit-drum or slit-gong - is a fine example. Traditionally used in ceremonies, it is an intricately carved log with a slice hollowed out from the centre from which the sound reverberates. Panpipes are also common in music, as are conch shells, which double as bush telephones. On Santo they play a three-holed flute, while on Ambrym a long, carved musical pipe is played. Ambrym is also home to the most elaborate sand drawings in Vanuatu, which villagers employ to illustrate legends, songs, ceremonies or to leave messages. Stone, wood and even treefern carving has developed into an intricate art form owing to the abundance of available materials, and in the north the sculptors sometimes use coral to carve small statues. Magic stones carved from pumice are part of Vanuatu's hidden life and are generally not on display. Tattooing was once a high art form but is becoming rarer, although body and rock painting are still widely practiced. Vanuatu's fractured terrain has produced a kaleidoscope of cultures and more than 100 indigenous languages. Isolated from each other by sea or impassable mountains, disparate groups of islanders had hundreds or thousands of years to jealously guard their own cultures and languages or to throw them in the mix with their neighbours. The indigenous population is an assemblage of Melanesian - the black people of the Western Pacific with links to Papuans and Australian Aborigines - Polynesian, the lighter skinned people of the eastern Pacific, and varying degrees in between. While Bislama is a linguistically unifying factor, English, and more commonly, French are also spoken.
