Kitesurf

Kitesurfing no longer has anything to prove; just take a walk along the Pacific on a windy day and you’ll inevitably see dozens of kiteboards speeding across Nouméa’s lagoon! For the speed, for the tricks, and for the simple pleasure of flying across the surface of the water: practitioners have their own leitmotifs and aren’t going to wait for you to join in.

There are so many islands, isles and islets dotted in the lagoon of New Caledonia that experts have given up counting them. In the Bay of Nouméa alone there are some 55 landmasses, while the Isle of Pines, the Loyalty Islands and the Belêp archipelago, form the southern, eastern and northern extremes of New Caledonian territory respectively.

  West Coast
  
  The West Coast of the mainland (Grande Terre) shows off a great variety of scenery from its northern tip down to the area surrounding Nouméa. Characterised by both large spaces favouring cattle farming and a lagoon of stunning beauty, the West Coast is also host to a rich cultural heritage.

  East coast
  
  The central mountain range of the Mainland (Grande Terre) is a natural boundary, overlooking the very different faces of the East and West Coasts. Exposed to strong winds and therefore more humid, the eastern coast offers scenery with sumptuous flora. With a population of largely Melanesian origin, the East Coast has also retained a particularly charming flavour of authenticity.

  Great South
  
  The Great South, comprising the Mont-Dore and Yaté municipalities, is the most symbolic region for New Caledonia’s three main colours: blue, green and red. From the rainforest to the mining lands there are a thousand shades of green, while the ocean offers a dazzling palette of blues. But if one colour dominates the Great South, it is the specific red of its ground.
