- When is the best time to visit your property for the perfect beach holiday?Vanuatu is in a sub-tropical zone and Friendly Beach is on the island of Tanna, so really any time of year is perfect for exploring the beaches and swimming. We are situated right on the beach, so even in different weather, you can still enjoy the view, the sound and feel of the pacific ocean....! In August it is time for whales to migrate and you can sometimes see them from your balcony!Answered on 18 November 2019
- Is your private beach next to the property or do I need to use a means of transportation to go there?Our beach is all part of our property- so you can walk across the sand out from you villa and go straight into the clear water of the pacific ocean!Answered on 18 November 2019
