Captain Cook first sighted the islands now known as New Caledonia in 1774, however it took just under another century before European powers colonised the region. The French established a penal colony in 1854 and over the coming decades sent around 22,000 convicts to the island. Today, New Caledonia remains a dependent territory of France and therefore offers a fascinating blend of traditional island culture and European influence.
Picturesque Beach
New Caledonia consists of 36 islands. The largest island is Grande Terre boasting the capital, Noumea. South of Noumea, Baie des Citrons and the Anse Vata are great beaches.

Grande Terre boasts the world's largest coral lagoon that makes a great starting point for snorkelers. Îlot Canard is another good snorkelling option.
