Ambae's pyramid shape is due to its volcanic origins. By far the largest of the Vanuatu volcanoes (its base is 3,000m below Sea Level!) after a slumber of 400 years, Ambae shocked its inhabitants by re-awakening in 1991 and again in 2017 which caused an evacuation of all inhabitants to nearby islands.
Life on the island has slowly moved back to normal with many of the inhabitants returning back to their homes creating new activities and opportunities for visitors to experience from natural attractions to cultural & community immersion.
