About Ambrym

Ambrym'smain attraction lies in the fact that it is one of the few places on earth where you can see active lava lakes. On a clear day, it is possible to see both Benbow and Marum's lava lakes.

The island is barren; the acid rain prevents vegetation growing in many areas.

Grade-taking ceremonies are also interesting to watch. During these events, dances are organized. One of the most striking is the Rom dance, which takes place in July or August every year.

Accommodation can be found at Milee Sea bungalow and Craig Cove or in Solomon Douglas Guesthouse and Vat-Mer bungalows in the north.

Vanair (domestic) services Ambrym 5 times a week. There are two airports, Craig Cove and Ulei.
