New Caledonia

"One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach; one can collect only a few, and they are more beautiful if they are few"
Anne Morrow Lindbergh

In the heart of the South Pacific lies France's best kept secret, a gorgeous islet encircled by an emerald green lagoon. New Caledonia is a land like no other, offering visitors a vision of the paradise of unquestionable beauty and ecological treasures, all waiting to be revealed.

Options for travelers in New Caledonia are huge, from diving on pristine reefs to dining out à la français, from trekking in unspoilt rainforest to partying the night away at a nightclub in Noumea. With a nod to local custom and an open mind, a trip to New Caledonia will be unforgettable.


The Noumea accords of early 1998 put off independence for the territory until 2013 at the earliest. Meanwhile, the sovereignty issue defines politics and ethnic relations. In June 2004, Marie-Noelle Themereau of the anti-independence Future Together was elected president, vowing to implement social, economic and fiscal reformations. She heads a collegial government made up of both pro and anti-independence parties.
