"Vanuatu is a slice of tropical paradise"
Letter from the Consul
I would like to introduce myself. I am the Consul of Vanuatu to Lebanon and Special Envoy of the Republic of Vanuatu to the Middle East. I am pleased to announce that our beautiful 83-island archipelago is prospering, spurred on by the worldwide stellar reputation we have amassed.
More and more people are discovering what a wonderful country we have and are choosing to do business here. Many are electing to reside here as well, at least on a part-time basis. Yes, Vanuatu is experiencing massive growth in its population. That is largely due to its economy and magnificent atmosphere. No wonder we are so proud of one of its major slogans of being “a slice of tropical paradise.”
Vanuatu has the distinction of having its people be repeatedly pronounced the happiest people on Earth. The quality of life here is superb and is experienced at a relaxed pace even when you must deal with government agencies. They will never rush you through a meeting or an important procedure. We want to invite you to visit Vanuatu and experience our country’s phenomenal atmosphere for yourself.

What Is the Climate Like in Vanuatu?
Due to its sprawling north-south nature, there is more than one climate. In the northern parts of this country, one can expect hot and humid temperatures. In the southern parts it tends to be dry and mild. In the winter months of December through February, it can be a little chilly during the nights. A lite jacket is recommended if you plan to venture outdoors in the evenings in the wintertime.
As for precipitation, the most rainfall is experienced between January and April at about 300 mm per month. The rest of the year, it is less than that. The exception would be in the area known as The Banks Islands far north in Vanuatu. There the annual rainfall totals more than 4,000 mm per year. There are occasional cyclone storms in Vanuatu. However, if you get caught in one, there is nothing to fear. All the mainstream tourist facilities are built to withstand this type of weather. Therefore, no danger exists for anyone.
