Mountain bike

Say goodbye to the well-traced trailed of the bays of Nouméa. Forget about quiet outings and set out to bike the rough trails of the mainland (Grande Terre), especially because New Caledonia is now highly focused on this booming sport, from the areas surrounding the city to the hillier land of the interior.

Fairs and festivals

New Caledonia offers numerous fairs and festivals all year round. The fairs essentially focus on agriculture, but the festivals can be very diverse.

  West Coast

- East coast
  
  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
  
  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.
