Yasur Volcano is the most accessible volcano in the Pacific. You can drive to within 100 metres of the rim of the volcano, walk up a cinder path and look straight down into the bubbling lava.

The road up the side of the volcano is lush with rain forest fern trees.

The best time to visit is at sunset. Be sure to take something warm to wear as it can be very cool and windy on the rim of the crater after sunset.

As the sun sets, the volcano craters become more spectacular. There are three active craters, each sending up bursts of molten lava into the evening sky. Every so often, at unpredictable intervals, the volcano erupts with an ear-splitting boom and a huge fountain of fire.
