Drink
Beach Bar
Your classic barefoot beachside bar right on the dark volcanic sands of Mele Bay, with cold beer and mediocre pub grub (pizzas, burgers). The main draw here is the rather impressive fire show held every Friday; book ahead in season if you want a table, and prearrange your transport back to town.
Daily 08:30-20:30, later Fri SatFire show free (donations welcome), beers from 600 VT
Buy
Tana Russet Plaza
Vanuatu's only modern shopping mall worthy of the name. 20 rather upmarket shops, cinema, French bakery-cafe, decent food court.
Eat
Stonegrill
Often ranked as Port Vila's top restaurant, the concept here is simple: steaks of premium Vanuatu beef that you grill to your liking on a sizzling hot stone. Basic steaks from under 2000 VT, but wagyu will set you back closer to 5000 VT.
Daily 11:30-21:30
Do
Big Blue Vanuatu
One of Vanuatu's largest and best-regarded dive shops. Full range of PADI courses, including instructor development training.
PADI Open Water course including 4 dives from 59,500 VT
