Bokissa Island Resort, Espiritu Santo, Vanuatu
If you long for a mix of adventure and seclusion, big wreck scuba diving and lazy afternoon hammock siestas, marlin fishing and poolside candlelit dinners, private beachfront snorkelling and fine table wines, tropical rainforest walks and air-conditioned private bungalows, then Bokissa Island is the place for you!

Bokissa Private Island Resort is a secluded 175 acres of tropical rainforest with white sandy beaches and marvellous clear, warm water. Swimming and snorkelling from the beach is absolutely safe with hard and soft corals in.

Bokissa Island is a coral cay with beautiful walking tracks through the lush rainforest in the centre of the island. Again, there are no poisonous spiders or snakes. In fact there are virtually no mosquitoes on the island due to the sandy soil (no puddles of water to breed in) and there’s definitely no malaria on Bokissa.

The island offers a range of interests to suit many tastes. The main activity is snorkelling and scuba diving with some of the world’s best reefs and wrecks available for both snorkelling and scuba diving. Snorkelling gear is free and there are boat trips available to take you to Tutuba Point and Million Dollar Point for some spectacular snorkelling sights.

If you’re already a certified scuba diver, there is a full range of gear for hire. Bokissa Island is in the centre of all the best diving in the Santo region. The world famous wreck of the President Coolidge (ask to see the video) and the fascination of Million Dollar Point are two of the main attractions for divers coming to Bokissa Island, the Jewel of Vanuatu.

Bokissa is the only Luganville resort with swimming, snorkelling and scuba diving on the magnificent coral gardens around the island, offering diver’s and snorkeller’s all the colour and spectacle they could ever want in tropical waters. Think of Bokissa Island as your "live-aboard" dive boat that doesn’t "rock and roll".
