A geothermal wonderland on Fergusson Island

Our adventure continued at the geothermal wonderland of Fergusson Island in the D'Entrecasteaux Islands. We visited the Deidei geothermal area, a spectacular environment of deep blue pools, mud pools and bubbling steam vents. In a captivating display, the local villagers showed us how they cook using the boiling water from the area.

In the afternoon, we were treated to a cultural performance and arts and crafts at Dobu Village. Making the most of the stunning weather, we then took the opportunity to snorkel in the crystal-clear water off Dobu Island.
