Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Summer clothes are a must. It is very humid and you want to be comfortable, so pack prepared for it. Sandals/thongs are fine for most things, but if you are planning on doing some bush walks, then running shoes would probable be best.
Toiletries & Medical Supplies: Insect repellant is a must, and so is sunscreen. Moisturiser and bandaids will also come in handy.
Photo Equipment: Don't forget to take an underwater disposable camera. You can get them for about $10 in Australia, but you will pay about $30 for one in Port Vila. The water is clear and there are hundreds of beautiful fish so you should get some good pictures.
Miscellaneous: Don't forget your patience! Locals work on "Island Time", meaning they work at their own pace and don't stick to strict times. It wouldn't be unusual to have your tour guide turn up half an hour late to take you out for they day, but don't get frustrated! Just go with the flow and before you know it, you'll be on Island time yourself!
