Isle of Pines

Third largest island in the Pacific Ocean after Papua New Guinea and New Zealand, New Caledonia is only 1,500 km east off the coast of Australia. Seeing this "terra incognita" in 1774, the British navigator James Cook found a similarity between the mountainous terrain of the Grande Terre and his native Scotland, whose former name was "Caledonia."
From coast to coast, New Caledonia, which stretches some 500 kilometres passing through the archipelago of the Loyalty Islands, is home to a surprising and remarkably diverse landscapes. Acting like a mountain range separates the Grande Terre (the main island) into two coasts, both with distinct characteristics.
In the southwest is Noumea, the economic heart of the country concentrating population and economic activity, is a European city in Melanesia. Pavement cafes, luxury boutiques and beaches shaded by palm trees give the city a French Riviera feel, while its relaxed atmosphere and wide blue skies add a touch of the Pacific.

For the gourmets, the curious and others... you can attend cooking classes in order to be initiated into the codes of French cuisine and learn some chefs’ secrets, tasting the results of your own work as a bonus. To the North of Noumea, along the West Coast are vast plains for livestock farming. This is where you will meet the Broussards: "cowboys" of the Pacific, with their pioneering spirit and colourful personality. The region is also home to fabulous beaches and, in the far north, a string of islands, whose waters team with fish.
Wetter and steeper, the East Coast has a fertile soil with lush vegetation, green valleys and stunning waterfalls.
Off Grande Terre - the mainland, the Iles Loyauté (Loyalty Islands) have three main islands Lifou, Maré and Ouvéa - where nature displays her splendour on both land and sea. There, life is organized around the tribes and the customs of the Kanak culture are still very much alive.
