Here is the response I received about the land divers when we are in Pentecost Island on Saturday 21 April.

 

Greetings and thank you for your message. Here below are some information.

 

There are four Nogal (Land Dive Towers) built in different locations this year. In the past, South Pentecost Tourism Association have not been able to spread the information online for what tourists should know before they set feet on the island to watch the divers.Vanuatu Rural Tourism have just started working on a website which we hope to launch in July 2018 in preparation for 2019 Land Dive Festival. In the website it has information on the costs for those traveling by air, those who want to spend several days on the island and for those who come by cruise ships for just a day.

 

In the last two decades, there were no activities or tours created for tourists arriving on the island so half of the day's been wasted considering that the land dive festival only lasts two hours until 12 mid-day. Vanuatu Rural Tourism has this as a trial package for this year to prepare for next year.

 

Before the Land Dive starts:

 

- Transfers on 4 x 4 trucks from the Cruise Tender Wharf at Pangi to Raksuksu Nagol Site

- Welcome Speech to tourists at Raksuksu Nagol entrance on arrival following with basic Introduction on the site's access area

- Commencement of the Land Dive

 

After the Land Dive:

 

(i) Transfers on 4 x 4 trucks from Raksuksu Land Dive Site to Baravet Village for lunch

(ii) Transfers to the Waterfall

(iii) Swimming and Snorkeling at Waterfall reef site

(iv) And return transfers to Pangi Cruise Tender Wharf by 4:30pm

(v) Stopping by at Whitewater Cascade natural swimming pool for about 20 minutes for those interested

 

Our Package Cost - AU$ 370.00 per Adult
