Vanuatu truly is a year-round destination. At any given time, superb results can be achieved for one or more of the available species. The following seasonal information is to be taken as a general guideline only; we strongly recommend that you contact Kahuna Charters to discuss your angling plans.

We will endeavor to fully advise you of the angling options available during your preferred window of travel, and will recommend travel times for targeting particular species. During your stay, within consideration of prevailing fishing and weather conditions, we will ensure that everything is done to allow you the best possible chances of success.

Weather patterns
Vanuatu lies south of the Equator, so the seasons are reversed from those in the northern hemisphere. Like fishing patterns, weather will vary from year to year, and the following information should be viewed as a guideline only. Fortunately, as there are so many islands in the Vanuatu chain, a lee shore or suitably sheltered waters can usually be found during high winds or storm activity.

South-east trade winds -- June to September
Generally, south-east trade winds keep Vanuatu's climate close to ideal. Though some rain can be expected throughout the year, most falls over the months of January to April. Daytime temperatures average in the 70s to 80 degrees Fahrenheit (21-32 degrees Centigrade). Nights: 60s to70s Fahrenheit (15-27 Centigrade)

Cyclone Season -- January to March
Historically, the northern islands of the Vanuatu chain are most affected by cyclone activity. In general, calm seas and hot, humid days are experienced at this time of year.
