Northern Volcano Aerial TourOur Northern Volcano Aerial Tour departs Port Vila at approximately 9.00am and gets you back by 3.30pm. The flight from Vila airport to our first site, Lake Monaro in Ambae, takes in the scenes of Efate Island. A 15 minutes overfly of Lake Monaro gives time to take pictures and soak up the magical site of this ancient crater lake. From Lake Monaro there is a stop over in Santo Island to refuel and have refreshments. From there take in the majesty of Ambrym island and the scenic over fly of her two active volcanoes, Mt Marum and Mt Benbow. The smoke and steam arising form both will make for fantastic pictures, so don't for get your camera. After Ambrym Island we head to Lopevi Island, an inhabited volcano arising vertically out of the sea, for a 10 minute flight over one of the most stunning volcanoes in the world.
After this the flight continues to Epi Island for lunch and the chance to see the dugong on Lamen Island. (Note that the appearance of the dugong is entirely up to his or her discretion.) Enjoy the afternoon here just relaxing and swimming, with a buffet lunch provided by Sunset Bungalows. The flight will leave Epi at 3.00pm and do an overfly of the beautiful Cooks Reef before setting down at Vila at 3.30pm to round off the day. Tour includes airport pickup and drop off from resorts in Vila, scenic flights over the Lake Monaro, Mt Marum, Mt Bembow and Lopevi Island, refreshments in Santo, buffet lunch, boat trip to Lamen bay and a chance to swim with the dugongs.
