Baravet or Bwaravet (from Ske bwara vet "big stone") is a cluster of villages in south-western Pentecost Island, Vanuatu.

The main village of Baravet is located by a river mouth on the coast, along the main north-south road 3 km north of Lonorore Airport.[1] The community has a nakamal, a guesthouse and several small stores. The main village comprises the hamlets of Vanambil, Sovlet and Lalpseh. At Vastamit, across the river from the main village, are a Churches of Christ church and kindergarten.

Baravet is the hub of the Ske language community,[2] and has a traditional identity distinct from that of other parts of Central Pentecost and South Pentecost.[3] The term 'Baravet' is sometimes used to refer to the entire Ske cultural area.
