Impossibly blue. Water is so clear. Worthwhile seeing this natural beauty. All the entrance fees start adding up (I think we paid cash VT 1,000 each and maybe half price for the teens) but it's a go… Full review by 214anisham
Which tour buses go to Nanda Blue Hole and do many go from Champagne Bay that will return to the ship on time? How does the Hibiscus Blue Lagoon compare with the Nanda Blue Hole? Thank you.
A:
Paradise tours seem to be the best and most reliable in Santo. Nanda blue is spectacular and you will have plenty of time to go to champagne beach and Port Olry

Hi Linda. It is 30km from Luganville and approximately 20 to 30 minutes drive. It depends on whatever type of transportation you wish to take like hire car, tour, taxi etc.. anyways the entry fee to Nanda is VUV 1000 per person. You pay at the gate before entering the property. There are markets in Luganville and yes there is a road market between Luganville and Nanda Blue hole.
We are visiting Santo on cruise ship and would like to travel to Blue Hole via local taxi -how long will this take and what is the approx cost? Or we have heard that we could visit via canoe? thank you-we look forward to meeting you and swimming there

There are several Blue Holes on Santos. we visited two of them, neither had any canoes in sight. There is one that you do paddle to via canoe - we saw them paddling - just not sure where we were exactly :) To visit Nando Blue Hole (our fav), allow 2hrs for the return trip to the ship inc a nice long swim. The local 'taxis' vary a lot in quality, size and price. Four of us negotiated a price of $20 ea for the 6 hours of our trip (gave a $20 tip as Cliff our driver was excellent) His ride was a late model Hilux dual cab. We rode INSIDE with AC. Many other taxi rides were in the back of a ute sitting on timber planks with no seatbelts. Some of the roads are dirt and rough .... many like to drive quite quickly. Word of Caution : Prices asked vary wildly - some passengers paid double our fare - and they rode in the ute tub. DO NOT get into a cab unless the driver answers very clearly what the cost is, where you are going and for how long. Nail it down .... or he may just take you for a 'ride'. Enjoy the experience!
My partner uses a walking stick. Does the access to the Nanda Blue Hole have any steep paths or steps? Or is it level ground to get there? Is there an easily accessible area where he can sit and watch? How far is it from the port at Luganville?
A:
Hi there, there are no difficulties with walking stick and there are places where you can choose to sit and watch. It's approximately 30 km from Luganville to Nanda blue hole.
