We went on an overcast day but you couldnt really tell on the way there because you couldnt see out of any windows on the bus. The 'resort' itself looked very run down and neglected. The blue water minivan drives you around to the tidal pools to feed the sharks and turtles. You get a bag of fermented leftover bread/fruit... more

I recently visited this attraction. Don't waste your time, it is expensive and a rip off!!! All the buildings are very run down, long way out of town for nothing. Plenty of other great things to see in Pt Vila. No food/drinks available out there. more

We recently stayed at Le Lagon in Vila. We travelled out to Bluewater Island Resort one morning to see turtles and sharks in a tidal pool. We were picked up from the resort by the Bluewater Island Bus and enjoyed the scenerary out of Vila. On arriving at Bluewater we noticed that the buildings and grounds were a bit run... more
