4 submarine cable landing points in Vanuatu. View coordinates, connected cables, and detailed location info.
Vanuatu has four submarine cable landing points located in Luganville, Norsup, Port Vila, and Tanna. These landing points connect the country to international and regional cable systems. The Interchange Cable Network 1 (ICN1), which became ready for service in 2014, is the longest operational cable at 1,259 kilometers. It links Vanuatu to Fiji. Another cable, Tamtam, is planned for service in 2027 and is expected to span 411 kilometers, connecting Vanuatu to New Caledonia.
The main internet providers in Vanuatu by user base are Owl, Telecom Vanuatu, Starlink, Digicel Vanuatu, and Kacific Broadband Satellites Pte. The country’s connectivity is classified as moderate, meaning it has several cables, but losing a main station would significantly reduce capacity. In the past 90 days, GeoCables recorded two outages, the most recent occurring on September 13, 2026.
