Gaua is the largest and second most populous island in Torba and is known for it's stunning landscape. Boasting an active volcano, Vanuatu's largest lake and highest waterfall - it's the perfect destination if you're after an adventure!

As you fly in to airport you will see the rugged coastline and dense jungle that covers most of the island - with small villages and gardens dispersed through out. The majority of the island's population live on the east coast, close to the airport, which is the perfect place to start exploring the island.

The best way to see Gaua is by foot. Meet the locals and wander through nearby villages or head out on a full day or multi-day guided trek through untouched rainforests. Gaua is also home to the world famous water music. This extraordinary cultural practice is unique to the women of Gaua and is not practiced by anyone else in the world. It's an amazing experience that has to be seen (or heard) to be believed and definitely isn't to be missed!

If you are looking for an adventure that offers pristine natural environments and unique Melanesian culture, Gaua is the island for you!
