Where is Aore Island?<br />
Sitting on the same latitude as Port Douglas<br />
in Australia, across 1700 km of open Coral<br />
Sea, the same distance as Port Douglas is to<br />
Brisbane, is Vanuatu’s Aore Island. This is<br />
the heart of James Michener’s Adventures in<br />
Paradise. Arguably one of the most be<strong>au</strong>tiful<br />
of all South Pacifi c islands, Aore (Our-ee)<br />
is genuinely unique. Not only due to its<br />
unsurpassed natural be<strong>au</strong>ty and pristine marine<br />
environment, but also the warm friendly smiles<br />
of the local Ni-Vanuatu people, the balmy<br />
tropical breezes and fragrant vegetation that<br />
includes colourful bougainvillea, frangipani, and<br />
wild native gingers and orchids.<br />

Located in the northern Sanma Province, at<br />
the foot of Vanuatu’s largest island of Espiritu<br />
Santo, the signifi cantly smaller Aore Island has<br />
a tropical ambience that words alone cannot<br />
describe: gently swaying palms; unspoilt white<br />
sandy beaches; luxuriant vegetation; tropical<br />
marine corals; and, a myriad of colourful<br />
fi sh species. Added to this are gentle topical<br />
tradewinds and spectacular sunsets that simply<br />
take your breath away.
