    We had an amazing time on the reef explorer glass bottom boat! Rosen was lovely and so good with the kids who were super excited to see Nemo and so many other beautiful fish. Rosen was able to navigate the reefs so well and we saw so much. Great family activity and well priced compared to other tours.

    La mer était claire donc les poissons étaient très visibles. La petite balade en bateau jusqu au large était bien sympathique en compagnie de Rosen. Je recommande.

    Nice underwater journey in the Port Vila Harbour and waters around Iririki Island. The recent earthquake has damaged a lot of the reef but the marine life is still there to be seen!! So come on fellow travellers, support the Reef Explorer and support the beautiful friendly and welcoming locals in Vanuatu. Our guide was very knowledgeable and a friendly chap who was welcoming to all. Kids will love it too!! Highly recommended.

    What to expect

    Watch the reef through four large underwater windows and stay dry. The Reef Explorer is Vanuatu's only semi-submersible, and the tour takes one hour. You sit in the viewing room, which holds 6 people at a time. We run along the reef beside Iririki Island, past the coral bommies and the drop-off, to Snorkellers Cove, then back through deeper water. On the way back you can sit on the top deck while we point out Port Vila's landmarks. What you may see: clownfish, parrotfish, angelfish, corals, sea cucumbers and starfish, and sometimes turtles, stingrays or eels. Regularly seen, never guaranteed. Good to know: You do not need to swim or snorkel. The boat is very stable, and seasickness has not been a problem. The route changes with the tide. High tide is better, and mornings usually have the clearest water. Children under 5 are free. Access is by a ramp to our pontoon, then four steep steps down into the cabin (you go down backwards). If you use a wheelchair or find walking difficult, please contact us before booking and we will tell you honestly whether we can manage. We are on the Port Vila Seafront, next to Nambawan Cafe, in the middle of downtown.
