It was the site of three international versions of "Survivor," but time spent on Efate is anything but a struggle. Part of the island nation of Vanuatu, Efate is a tropical former territory of Britain and France, whose influences are still present in the island’s culture and cuisine. The capital city of Port Vila is a mosaic of restaurants, shops and museums, as well as the point of origin for many SCUBA, jet ski and parasailing excursions. Don’t miss the spectacular freshwater falls of Mele Cascades.

We won Best Adventure Activity 2017/18 Our 30 minute Jet boat experience is the most exhilarating water tour in the South Pacific! Thrilling 1000’s of people every year this is the most popular tour in Vanuatu. Full of surprising twists, turns and a lot of splashes. This is a Jet boat trip like no other! Recognized as one of Vanuatu’s best value products for a good reason, this is an adrenaline rush from the moment you leave town. Our state of the art custom built Jet boats are designed for one purpose; to excite and thrill you as you race around the Port Vila Harbour at speeds of 80km/hr. Sit back, hold on, and try to relax as our experienced boat drivers navigate the busy water ways over the coral reefs. With skill and speed you will negotiate the shallow reefs, when suddenly you are going sideways, backwards, sideways and back facing the way you were going, WOW, that’s a Hamilton spin! 360 degree spin, as the boat turns in its own length! #thewetterthebetter #bestshoretourportvila

Absolutely Amazing. I booked a tour prior to my cruise from Australia to Vanuatu. All contact and messaging was easy and care free. We had a full day tour from 9.30am until 9pm. Visited Duty Free, Blue Lagoon, Turtle Sanctuary and Hideaway Island. We ended at the Beach Bar for the Fire Show - this was fantastic! A gorgeous morning tea of fresh fruit and a super tasty bbq lunch was all included. This day tour was the highlight of my entire trip. Zac, our tour guide, was amazing, funny and informative. They were very well organised and the entire day was hassle free. I can’t recommend them more highly!

Mele Cascades Waterfalls is one of Efate's most popular natural attractions. Only 20 minutes drive out of town, a visit can be completed in just over two hours. There are bathroom facilities available , sitting area, a small cafe and bar on site for purchase of food and drinks. The area is local owned and run by locals. Revenue generated help pay wages for local employees, maintenance and upkeep of the area,community development for surrounding villages and sponsorship of social activities, most especially soccer development programs for youth. Note: Efate is currently experiencing severe El Nino and the once picturesque attraction has very low water levels. This is also causing drastic water supply shortage to villages and its people. To close the business would mean loss of income for many.
We visited the Mele Cascades when we had a hire car for the day. Easy to find, entry fee is reasonable and as it was quiet Jason one of the staff was able to show us around, take photos and also made several things for the kids from the surrounding vegetation which they loved. He also showed us the Hideaway Island look out which branches off from the main path to the left on the way up (not signposted). Beautiful falls and wish we could have stayed longer and made more of a day of it.
