Frequently Asked Questions
Pele is a short boat ride from north Efate, often paired with Nguna in the same stretch of water. There is no airport; you travel via Efate by road to the departure point, then boat. Day trips and overnight bungalow stays are both common.
Village bungalows, shared meals and the need to ask before using land or beaches are the traditions you will meet first. Pele is a community island, not a private resort enclave, and most visits are hosted by the family you stay with. Everyday courtesy, modest dress in the village, and permission before photos are the culture on show.
Ask before walking through gardens, visiting another village, using a customary beach, or taking photographs. Your bungalow hosts can speak for you if you arrive through them. Do not assume a landing place is public just because it is pretty.
Dress modestly in the village, greet people, and join meals or walks only when invited. Pay for what you use, including boats and bungalows, and leave no rubbish on beaches or garden paths. A good visit is unhurried and hosted, with your hosts deciding where guests may walk.
