New Caledonia is an island settled in the Pacific Islands that offers a mixture of thrilling adventures and glorious scenery. The island is mostly untouched which creates an ideal environment for visitants who want to experience and try out various water activites on offer such as wind surfing and scuba diving. You should consider learning a little French before your visit to New Caledonia because the island is strongly influenced by the French. In the capital city of Noumea, they speak French, English, and Japanese at most hotels, restaurants and shops.

While in New Caledonia, a favourite honeymoon destination, honeymooners can go for long dreamy walks on the beach, arrange a tour of the Jean-Marie Tjibaou Center, or wander through the beautiful botanical garden. Some honeymooners go so far as to hire a yacht while staying here. With a yacht, they can sail the still waters circling the main island of Grand Terre or visit one of the smaller islands. Who knows they may discover a small private beach on Isle des Pines, known for white-sand beaches and an emerald lagoon, where they can have a romantic lunch and swim.

Another great way to discover New Caledonia is to join one of the hiking tours, which will allow you to see the fantastic countryside instead of the usual tourist spots, without the worry of getting lost. They could also charter a taxi boat to take them to one of the neighboring islands in the area. Grande Terre has the worlds largest coral lagoon making it a must see. Imagine the thrill of finding a marine treasure while diving amongst exquisite coral, tropical fish, turtles, sea snakes and sharks or the enchantment of seeing dolphins playing and whales spouting while you relax on the beach of this lovely vacation location.

New Caledonia guests can experience the divine French food or local cuisine. While there try the Bougna, a traditional meal of the native Melanesians, which has meat and roots, such as yams and sweet potatoes, wrapped in banana leaves and then cooked under hot rocks heated in a fire.
