Top Attractions & Excursions

The crown jewel of the island is the legendary Fels Cave, a historical landmark adorned with ancient rock drawings that is reachable via a short guided walk.

Nearby Cities & Attractions

While the beach club is a self-contained paradise, shore excursions often venture across the water to the main island of Efate. The bustling capital of Port Vila is located approximately 30 minutes away by boat and road, offering a lively look at local life and French-Melanesian cuisine.

Additionally, the breathtaking Mele Cascades, a series of terraced waterfalls surrounded by lush jungle, is a popular day-trip option located about 40 minutes from the Havannah Harbour transit point.

Port Location

The cruise facilities are located directly on the western coastline of Lelepa Island. Depending on the ship's deployment, passengers typically arrive via a scenic tender boat ride from the ship or step directly onto the purpose-built pier.

Because this is a private club, all major amenities—including multiple dining venues, bars, freshwater pools, and activity centers—are immediately accessible upon arrival, eliminating the need for municipal transit.

Last updated on July 9, 2026

Local Currency

The official currency of Vanuatu is the Vanuatu Vatu (VUV), with an exchange rate hovering around 110-120 VUV to 1 USD. Within the private beach club, guests can conveniently use their cruise ship SeaPass card for all food, drinks, and rental purchases.

For purchasing authentic handicrafts at the local community market, Australian Dollars (AUD) and US Dollars (USD) are widely accepted, though carrying small denominations of local Vatu is highly recommended as there are no ATMs on the island.

Safety Considerations

Royal Beach Club Lelepa is an exceptionally safe and highly secure environment, monitored closely by cruise staff and local hosts. It is perfectly safe for families and solo travelers to explore the designated resort areas and beaches independently.

For those wishing to learn more about the island's interior, participating in official guided tours is required to respect the privacy of the local Ni-Vanuatu villages.

Weather & Climate

The region enjoys a warm, tropical climate year-round, with average temperatures ranging between 23°C (73°F) and 30°C (86°F). The dry season, running from May to October, brings cooler breezes and lower humidity, making it the prime time for cruising.

The wet season spans from November to April, characterized by brief afternoon showers and higher humidity; passengers during these months should pack reef-safe sunscreen, light rain gear, and plenty of swimwear.

Last updated on July 9, 2026

Getting Around

Since the private club is designed for easy walking, no vehicular transportation is required to access the beaches, pools, or dining areas. For exploring the surrounding waters, passengers can book organized snorkeling safaris or kayak tours through the cruise line.

For excursions departing to the mainland of Efate, organized boat tenders and air-conditioned shuttle buses are fully coordinated by the ship's shore excursion team.

Last updated on July 9, 2026

Shopping

Shopping on Lelepa Island is focused on supporting the local community at the dedicated artisan market. Here, local Ni-Vanuatu crafters sell beautiful hand-woven baskets, wood carvings, and traditional shell jewelry.

Unlike typical cruise ports, there are no commercial duty-free shopping malls, and haggling is not customary in Vanuatu culture; prices are fair and directly support the local families of Lelepa.
