Mystery Island

First visit was to Mystery Island, part of Vanuatu. This is largely a flat island, quite small (can walk around it in under an hour), and was used an airstrip during the war. No-one lives there, and islanders from nearby Aneityum Island to staff the stalls and see the usual range of goods.

Basically, it's just an island to hang out on and swim and snorkle (neither of which I do). I did plan on taking the glass bottom boat around the island to get a look around, but it was broken, so that didn't happen. And I was too overheated to do anything else after being there for a few hours.

A pleasant enough island.

Pictures available here. Note that the large island is not Mystery Island. That's the long flat one you see.
