Activities on Molono island and santo

Enjoy Molono!  With two beaches, a premium Sonos sound system, a full refrigerator and your own personal snorkel reef, you may never want to leave the resort!  Once known as "Honeymoon Island",  Molono is the perfect place to leave the world behind and be alone together with no distractions.  Lay in the double hammock, explore our botanical gardens, or make friends with wild parrots.  Enjoy your island, your way. Satellite Internet brings the world to your phone in the house and on the beach so you can keep in touch with loved ones.

We are just a kayak paddle away from Santo's world-famous Blue Holes.  Dive in to the gin-clear water to cool off on a hot day and meet some of the friendly locals.  Atheletes, test your courage by jumping in from the Banyan Tree.  Don't want to paddle?  Take a private guided tour with our activities manager on the electric-powered "Dinghy Love" and  see the jungle through the eyes of a local while you sip on a nice cold coconut, and leave the driving to us.

Take the Hobie Cat out on the lagoon for a romantic way to see the area and keep an eye out for the turtles who rest on the water's surface.  Don't know how to sail?  Take a lesson with our activities manager or just sit back and enjoy a private guided tour with the captain.  Learn local history and culture as you cruise the beautiful Turtle Bay Lagoon.  Stop at restaurants, snorkel spots, or look for the rare Dugongs who frequent the lagoon.

In addition to the catamaran and Rigid Inflatable boats, we have two beautiful Stand-Up Paddle Boards, both printed with life-sized prints of the Gallups' most famous collaborative painting, "Coral Gardens".  These are stable "beginner boards", and our beachfront lagoon is the perfect place to learn on a calm day.   Of course, we also have kayaks at your disposal 24/7.  Take them out at night with a bottle of champagne for a view of the stars you'll never forget.

Set up a Half-day or Full-day private fishing charter on the best boat in Santo with Pacific Reef Fishing Charters.  Ruan is one of the most charming and knowledgeable fishermen in the country, and his boat is as beautiful as it is powerful.  Santo is home to some of the best sportfishing in the world, year round.  Catch Dogtooth Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, GT's, Wahoo, Dorado and much more in Vanuatu's legendary fishing grounds on his boat, and show off your BBQ skills back on Molono.  Better still, bring in a sushi chef to make your catch into a gourmet meal you'll talk about for years.

In addition to its gorgeous coral reefs, Vanuatu is home to many WWII airplane and shipwrecks.  Of particular interest to many visitors is the wreck of the S.S. Coolidge just off of Santo's Million Dollar Point.  Nearby Turtle Bay Lodge has a fully certified PADI Dive Center where you can learn to dive, take advanced courses, or schedule many different dives to suit your interests.  You can even arrange to dive the reef on the back side of Molono Island, just a one minute boat ride from the landing beach.  Take your surface interval snorkeling nearby Oyster Island, at the great outdoor restaurant at Turtle Bay, or even on Molono itself.  Your dive day, your way.

The Millennium Cave Tour is an action packed, adventure filled experience.  Trek through a tropical forest, explore Vanuatu's largest cave, scramble over boulders and then cool down with a river swim.

It's not easy, so fitness is advised.  Visitors describe this day as one not to be missed, as the unique beauty of this cave speaks for itself.

Considered by many as the best beach in the South Pacific, Champagne Beach is just an hour's drive away.  Named for the tiny bubbles which float up from the champagne-colored sand, this postcard-perfect beach has been featured on computer screen-savers for decades.

A modest admission fee employs a caretaker family who make sure the beaches remain clean at all times for that perfect instagram photo.

While you're in the neighborhood, check out Port Orly and have lobsters and beer at the cafe on the beach.  On the ride home, have your driver take you to the blue hole to rinse off in the cool springs before heading home to Deeper Love Resort.

We know, it's hard being famous.  At Deeper Love Resort, that's not a problem.  Most locals have never heard of Disney or the Grammys, and they certainly don't know Netflix.  Our staff will treat everyone like a celebrity, whether they know you are one or not.  We have a close relationship with the locals, and we can assure total privacy and security without ever intruding on your stay.  Except Michael Jordan and Kelly Slater.  Sorry, guys, but you're legends even in Vanuatu. (We'll still make it work, though- call us today for a laid-back great time with extra security to keep excited locals at a distance)
