Wooden Canoe on the Beach

A Wooden Canoe Alone on the Beach at Waterfall Village.  Pentecost Island, Vanuatu.

Wooden Canoes Pepper the Beaches on Pentecost Island.

Very Heavy Canoes

As one would expect these wooden canoes are very heavy and take a long time to make. The amount of time and work that goes into making one of these is extensive.

A proper tree must be found first, then once the required part of the tree is chopped down it is a matter of just carving the middle of the tree away and hollowing it out.

Needless to say, it takes a very, very long time to make.
