Game Fishing Vanuatu
"Come Big Game Fishing in Port Vila, Vanuatu with Crusoe Fishing Adventures!
Vanuatu (Vanuatu means 'Land Eternal') is a "Y"-shaped chain of 83 islands spread in the emerald waters of South Pacific. The archipelago is located 2,500 km north-east of Sydney (Australia), 2,000 km north of Auckland (New Zealand) and 230 km north-east of New Caledonia.
Vanuatu, the hidden gem of the South Pacific, is a place of untamed beauty. The islands offer a diverse range of scenery, from towering volcanic cones and coastal plains, lush forests to raised coral atolls with flour-white beaches, pale turquoise lagoons and deep sapphire blue natural harbours.
The Ni-Vanuatu people are a peaceful, loving, gentle race, who enjoy life's simpler pleasures in a country of unique and diverse culture. English, Australian, New-Zealanders, French, Chinese and other Pacific Islanders live here in harmony and contribute to the dynamism and the richness of this multicultural society.
Bislama, English and French are widely spoken in addition to the 110 local languages.
Crusoe Fishing Adventures fishing charters are based in the laid-back capital of Vanuatu, Port-Vila, on the main island of Efate. Beautiful Efate has a rugged coastline and rolling verdant countryside, fast flowing rivers, cascading waterfalls, isolated sandy bays and pristine lagoons to relax after the thrilling days out fishing for big game.
Port Vila, Vanuatu's capital, is regarded as one of Oceania’s most attractive towns: it is located around a magnificent natural harbour offering stunning views of Iririki and Ifira islands. It is Vanuatu's international gateway and remains the only town on the island. Clean and uncluttered, the waterfront area is so unpolluted, visitors are stunned to look down from the seawall and see live corals and tropical fish. It's also known as the gourmet capital of the South Pacific.
The potpourri of expatriate cultures is reflected in food styles served in over forty restaurants and cafes - French, Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, Italian, Mexican, Thai, Melanesian and Mediterranean. Best of all, Port Vila is a safe and hassle free environment. You can stroll along the waterfront, or darkened back streets late at night and passing locals are likely to wish you a soft "Good night", or perhaps strike up a friendly conversation. You will never have your bag snatched and shopping is fun and easy going. There's no such thing as a hard sell or pushy salesman. Prices are fixed and bargaining is not a part of the friendly lifestyle.
Vanuatu waters have gained the reputation as the premium sport fishing and game fishing destination in the South Pacific. The deep virgin waters surrounding Efate and the Vanuatu islands are the ideal game fishing playing fields for game anglers who strive to meet the challenge of catching big sea monsters. Here, industrial fishing is still scarce and 90% of the islands and the surrounding waters remain untouched. Abyssal depths can be reached a few miles away from the shore of nearly all islands. Fishing around Efate means that after a 15 minute ride from Port Vila harbour, you're in 1000 meters of deep blue water where big fish abound. And with 90% of Vanuatu islands still not explored and where very few boats roam, our sports fishing and game fishing half-day, full day or live-aboard charters will leave you enthralled with the huge number and variety of big fish swarming the waters.
