Port Olry Beach
Port-Olry
A village and long white-sand beach at the northeastern tip of Espiritu Santo, with clear waters, offshore islets and a famous seafood lunch of lobster at the beach restaurants.
Port-Olry lies at the northeastern tip of Espiritu Santo and is one of the island’s larger villages. In front of the village stretches a long white-sand beach and a calm turquoise bay. The islets offshore can be reached by outrigger canoe or by wading. Villagers run beachside bungalows and restaurants, known for coconut crab, lobster and grilled fish. It is about 1 hour and 15 minutes by car from Luganville, farther than Champagne Beach but quieter, and it is a good place to spend a night. Note that the village charges a small entry fee, so bring cash. Coconut crab is a protected species, so it is best not to order it.
