Port Vila to Nguna | A New Chapter Under Sail

We’re starting our sail to the remote north of Vanuatu — leaving behind the bustle of Port Vila and heading toward quieter waters, coral anchorages, and a different pace of life. On our way to Nguna Island, we pass the wreck of Blue Gold — a 50-metre superyacht that now rests just offshore, a striking sight as we begin our northern journey. Nguna’s anchorage is surrounded by coral, so we take our time — carefully finding a patch of sand, diving on the chain, and making sure we’re anchored securely without harming the reef. In this episode: ⚓ Starting our journey to Vanuatu’s remote north 🛥️ Passing the grounded wreck of Blue Gold 🌊 Searching for a safe spot to anchor among coral 🐠 Diving to check the chain in 15 metres of clear water This is the kind of travel we live for — thoughtful, slow, and full of quiet moments that stay with you. We’re so glad you’re here. 📺 Subscribe for more remote sailing and island life 🧭 Join us on Patreon for behind-the-scenes updates: patreon.com/adamandvickistravels 📖 Discover A Sailor’s World short stories on Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/adamandvickistravels #SailingVanuatu #RemoteNorth #PortVilaToNguna #OffGridAdventure #BlueGoldWreck #NgunaIsland #SailingLife #RemoteAnchorages #SouthPacificTravel #SailingVlog We hope you enjoy it!
