Vanuatu Handicraft Markets

The Vanuatu Handicraft Markets are located between Port Vila's town center and the shipping port. The market features a mix of handcrafts, food vendors, and a duty-free shop selling alcohol, tobacco, and perfumes. While originally envisioned as a large complex with over 140 stalls, it has experienced a decline in occupancy, with many vendors relocating to the city center. Visitors can find woven goods, carvings, clothing, and local produce, but price consistency and the authenticity of some items are concerns. The market is conveniently located for cruise ship passengers, with options for delivery of purchases to their vessels.
