New Caledonia

We spent our last days in New Caledonia with Fabien and Keisha and used their home as a base for our day trips to "Parc de la Rivière Bleu" in southern Grande Terre and to spend some time in Nouméa itself.

After a quick stopover in Nouméa we took another flight to Lifou, one of the Loyalty Islands north-east of Grande Terre. We had high expectations and were rewarded with another piece of peaceful paradise and diverse activities. Go ahead, see for yourself.

From Nouméa we flew over to Île des Pins (Pine Island) and even though we had quite some expectations, what this tiny paradise island kept ready for us was literally blowing our minds. We have never seen such a beautiful diversity of blue/turquoise colours and perfect white sandy beaches!!!

We finally arrived to New Caledonia, a less frequented piece of paradise on the western tip of the south Pacific, on 10th January 2017. Due to flight availability to the real paradise islands we started our journey on the main island, Grande Terre, and headed north of Nouméa, the capital city. We made our way up the west coast and down again the east coast. If you are interested in more facts and stories, please read about the highlights of this 1-week road trip.
