MANLEP Investments is proposing to build a tourism wharf and world-class cruise center in idyllic Havannah Harbor, North Efate. The beachfront cruise facility will be nestled among 40 hectare of landscaped grounds and jungle. The cruise center’s location and Havannah Harbor’s geography offer cruise vessels a safe approach and berthing year-round. At the cruise center guests can swim in the sparkli
ng ocean waters or in one of the largest swimming pools in the South Pacific, stroll along the idyllic beach, relax in a complimentary chaise lounge on the beach or around the pool or rent a private poolside cabana for the day. The cruise center will host a bar and grill with live music, Custom Mama’s handicraft market, and retail shopping. Cruise ship passengers looking to explore Havannah Harbor will be directed to the water taxi jetty located on the premise. Tours include snorkeling trips, game fishing, and taxi service to village tours on Lelepa or Moso islands. Local water taxi operators will be required to be a part of the Havannah Harbor Water Taxi association and will work closely with cruise center staff to provide organized and professional pickup and drop off service for their passengers. Cruise ship passengers will also be able to take round the island bus/taxi tours or direct trips to Port Vila. All bus and taxi operators will be required to be licensed and a part of the Havannah Harbor Bus and Taxi association. Cruise center staff control and manage an organized and professional taxi and bus traffic scheme.
