Mele Bay is a beautiful coastal area just west of Port Vila, renowned for its calm, clear waters and vibrant marine life. It's a prime spot for snorkeling and swimming, with coral reefs close to shore. The bay also serves as the gateway to the Mele Cascades, a series of freshwater waterfalls and pools set in lush tropical vegetation. Visitors can combine a beach day with a hike to the falls for a full nature experience.
