EDGE Vanuatu is a multi-award winning Adventure Tourism Company featuring the Cascades Abseil. Our clients are transferred to the beautiful Mele Cascades, after the briefing and gear fitting you are taken on a walk to our Practice Cliff, first stopping out our Lookout. We have an 8m Practice Cliff where we teach you the basics of abseiling beside a lovely rock pool. Then it's 50 m down the waterfall in two 25 m pitches, the first passing a cave and on the second you cross underneath the waterfall before landing in the pool at the bottom and being guided back through the spectacular Mele Cascades for refreshments and a chance to view the photos from your tour.

"The biggest and closest waterfall I have ever seen! We paid about 2000 vt or $20 AUD and it was the most expensive of all the sites but it was worth it! The walk up to the fall is about 20 mins. It starts with passing by a cafe/bar and alongside are small little streaming cascaded pools (this would ..."have been an ideal spot for a relaxing cocktail post the walk back from the fall but unfortunately we ran out of time). One thing to note, is the toilet isnt as what you would hope for but its better then most other places. Then it's a walk up a several steps to find your place in a serene walk path to which at the end is the beginning of your adventure :) The walk to the waterfall is exciting! It feels like an Indiana Jones adventure. One thing I definitely recommend is to wear something like reef shoes or hiking sandals. We walked bare foot all the way up and although the bouldering rocks were easy to walk through and surprisingly not slippery, it's when you have to step down where the sma...

"My partner and i heard about the zegos through friends we met at our resort it sounded like great fun!, we thought we would give it a try and definetly no regrets,the staff were very friendly and helpful as it was my first time driving a boat. We traveled past the waterfront mansions and then we ope..."ned the throttle and thats when the fun began we were doing donuts and figure eights, we went out through the harbour out to paradise cove where we got to have a swim and snorkal that was added on to our tour we then headed back to the seafront, our guide roger he spoke very politely and told us many jokes.We did the one hour tour we had an excellent time it was definetly worth doing,i recommend it to everyone!.

"The falls are worth a trip. Your cab driver will stay and wait for you to come back. He will also drive you around the rest of the island. This is a great option for a full day trip. Ask to go to blue lagoon."
