Oyster Island
A small island in an east-coast lagoon. The resort is known for fresh oysters and seafood, and a walking trail on the island connects by boat to the Matevulu Blue Hole.
Oyster Island lies off the east coast of Espiritu Santo near Matevulu, about 100 meters from the shore, and a small boat takes you across. The island resort is known for freshly harvested oysters and seafood meals. A trail circles the island through tropical vegetation, and you can snorkel in the shallows. From here, you can rent a canoe and paddle up the river toward the Matevulu Blue Hole, a common combination for a half-day tour of the east coast. It is about 30 minutes by car from Luganville. Note that non-guests should book meals in advance. Check the tides before paddling, since the channel becomes shallow at low tide.
