Mystery Island on Anatom,Vanuatu..

These pictures are of Mystery Island that only opens up when the cruise ship comes. The people from the village of Anelcahat take their wares to Mystery Island to sell. It is all set up for the tourist, It's pretty amazing. We visited the island before the ship came in and visited while the tourist were there. Nobody lives on this island, it is totally just for the cruise ship passengers. The island also has a small airport as you will see in the photos.
This is the entrance to Mystery Island. The huts you see are the vender's stalls.

Post Office

This the dock that they bring the passengers, and you look across the bay you can see the village of Anelcuhat and our yacht. It's only about a 5 to 10 mins ride by dinghy.

As you all know cannibalism existed in the South Pacific, so there you go . They could have their picture taken with  the cannibal and pot.

This Island was dedicated to Queen Elizabeth.

They had toilets placed
 all over the island.
