Yasur Volcano & Tanna Highlands Safari - This safari will take you through the Middle Bush area, past the wild horses on the White Grass plains, coffee plantations, and many highland villages reaching Mt. Loanialu at 552m, across the ash plain moonscape Isiwi area, terminating at the peak of Mt. Yasur. A further 15 minute walk will place you at the crater’s edge (dependant on volcano activity at the time) where one can ponder over the awesome power of nature.
Custom Village - This safari will take you into the forest to experience a way of life that has not changed through time. There will be locally made authentic handicrafts available to purchase. If time permits you will also visit the main town of Lenakel on the return journey.
Lamkail Rainforest Tour - Meet the villagers, visit their lovely beach and explore an ancient rainforest including a majestic Banyan Tree, Coconut Crab habitat and view trees filled with sleeping flying Foxes. Your guide will demonstrate the importance of the rainforest and show you traditional hunting traps and fishing outriggers. There is plenty of time on this tour to wander the beach, have a swim, buy some local handicrafts or mingle with the Lamkail people.
Surf Beach & Waterfall Safari - A thrilling 4WD adventure to the spectacular black sand surf beach on the wild east coast of Tanna. Visit the magnificent Louniel waterfall, deep in the forest, then experience traditional foods and cooking methods. Enjoy a picnic on the black sand surf beach before a swim, surf or optional horse ride along the 5km shoreline. Bathe in the fresh water spring then collect some handicrafts from the villagers, before late afternoon returning to the resort.
Jon Frum Village Tour - Every Friday evening the followers of Jon Frum come from surrounding areas to celebrate with song and dance to encourage the ‘messiah’ to return, bringing all the cargo he promised.
Beaches
White Grass Ocean Resort has a 300m private white sand beach with large rock pools to explore and swim in. Within 5 minutes walk there is the tiny “Kiss Kiss” beach so named due to its unique access; a cave created over millions of years by water erosion, it’s hidden. The second beach is a further 2 minutes walk. It is called the “family beach” due to its enclosed aspect and is sheltered with soft sand for the kiddies. This is also an ideal site to learn snorkelling. The next beach is a further 50m. Here you can access the “Blue Hole”. An underwater lake vaguely oval in shape, 50m between its furthest point and 30m at it’s narrowest. The blue hole is everyone’s favourite snorkelling spot. It is rare to find more than 3 snorkellers at any one time in this marine haven.
