SAILING VANUATU: YAKEL VILLAGE

Yakel Village is one of the most traditional communities in Vanuatu. Located in the central part of Tanna island, this tribe still holds on to their long held traditions using their traditional grass dresses and practicing their tribal Kastom dance, with which they enjoy themselves like if there was no tomorrow. Their houses are still made of wood, bambu and palm leaves keeping them much fresher in sunny days than modern brick, mortar and tin roofed houses. But the most surprising aspect of this tribe is how happy they are with so little, how united as a community.
