Shore diving from a beachfront resort or dive lodge, often just steps from the water. A quiet, remote site — book lodging well in advance.

Why go
Million Dollar Point lies in the Pacific Ocean off Vanuatu and is centred on wreck dives, turning sunken vessels into reef-like habitat. Dives run to 25 m with around 15 m visibility, gentle currents and sea temperatures of 26–29°C. Marine highlights include WWII military equipment dump, corals and fish. Diving is possible year-round, typically reached by shore and boat. A good choice for divers with some experience. Open Water certification is sufficient for most sites here.

Clear water and the chance of WWII military equipment dump — what more do you want?
I bring my OW students here. The mild current makes a proper dive plan essential, and the briefing matters.
Worth the journey.
