Frequently Asked Questions
Malo is reached by boat from Santo, and once there you move on foot, by local truck or with your host. There is no town circuit like Luganville. Plan activities around where you are staying rather than assuming you can roam independently.
Roads and services are limited compared with Santo's town of Luganville. Do not count on ATMs, a wide choice of restaurants, or frequent shops. Accommodation is simple, and what you eat often depends on what the community has that day, so bring cash and a few essentials from Santo.
One to two nights is often enough for a first visit, especially if you are already based on Santo. That gives time for a village stay and a sense of the island without overstaying limited facilities. Longer only makes sense if you have a clear reason to settle in.
How close it is to Santo, and how different the pace feels once you leave Luganville, surprises many first-time visitors. The crossing is short, but shops, roads and evening options drop away quickly. Bring cash, insect protection and a willingness to follow local time.
