Is Vanuatu safe for women?

Port Vila

Port Vila is an objectively safe city, however there are some precautions to take. I would advise against travelling alone at night, as the streets are not well lit and young men will drink and act erratically. There have been cases of petty theft as well, so keep your belongings stored safely. There are occasional tourist traps, for example, the lizard man downtown - you'll know him if you see him. All things considered, Port Vila is safe and similar precautions should be taken here as in any city.
