Resorts in New Caledonia
About New Caledonia
This South Pacific nation is situated east of Australia, just a little over two hours’ flight away. The main landmass is called Grand Terre, in addition to Iles Loyaute (Loyalty Islands), the eternally beautiful Iles des Pins (Isle of Pines) and numerous small islands and coves dotting the Pacific Ocean. The New Caledonia Lagoon is practically the biggest natural aquarium in the world; this World Heritage site hosts placid sea turtles, majestic eagle and manta rays, reef sharks and shoals of colourful fishes for divers.
To unwind, Noumea excels at providing retail therapy with its high streets filled with outlets of almost all French and international designers. For foodies, a walk down the town’s Latin Quarter or its many restaurants will satisfy both the gourmet and adventurer in travellers.
Things to Do in New Caledonia
One of the best ways to explore the Grand Terre is to rent a car and go for a winding drive into the forested mountains. For those looking for a kick of adrenaline, the chance to skydive over the world’s largest lagoon is unmissable. Visitors can also go for ultralight and paragliding tours – flying over the ‘Heart of Voh’ is unforgettable. Trekking, hiking and biking down steep nature trails is as enjoyable as they are glorious to see. We recommend divers check out sites such as the shipwreck of Arrogant at Boulais, the underwater caves of Lifou and the colourful marine life at Prony Needle!
Best Time to Visit New Caledonia
This destination enjoys semi-temperate weather all year around. The touristy high season falls around September to December, characterised by low humidity and sunny weather all-around. For divers, the best time to visit is from April to November!
Culturally, there is always a festival or event lighting up Noumea and other islands. Some of the fairs you can experience include the Koumac, Yate, Boulouparis or Poum. And of course, the Bourail Fair, which is known for showcasing local cowboys (or ‘broussards’ in French!). There are plenty of art, film, music and dance events lighting the towns up year-round. At Hideaway Holidays, we specialise in all-inclusive New Caledonia holiday packages. Check out our best-selling deals below or call us to tailor your bespoke getaway at 1300 991 751!
