Port Resolution

Port Resolution sits in a dramatic bay on Tanna Island, right in the shadow of Mount Yasur, one of the world's most accessible active volcanoes. You can anchor off and dinghy ashore to the legendary Port Resolution Yacht Club, a wonderfully ramshackle setup that's become a South Pacific institution. The surroundings deliver black sand beaches, natural hot pools, and smoking coastal caves — genuinely unlike anywhere else you'll stop in Vanuatu.
