Looking for a vacation destination that is truly unique? Fancy somewhere with a beach and sailing opportunities, plus the cuisine and atmosphere of a metropolitan city. A perfect vacation that has all of this is a trip to the French settlement of New Caledonia, situated between Australia and Fiji.

As New Caledonia is located farther south than many of the other islands of the South Pacific, its climate benefits from southeast trade winds, plenty of sun, and balmy weather. If a sailing holiday is what you fancy, New Caledonia is based in a part of the Pacific that has the biggest coral lagoon in the globe. Sailing charters are easy to find and with the aid of the trade winds you can sail out of the capital city of Noumea along the coastline, past the many small islands that dot the ocean around the New Caledonia. Other outdoor activities on the Island are scuba diving, snorkeling, horseback riding, canoeing, and kayaking.

If you were hoping for a gourmet holiday, you can find everything you could want on New Caledonia. New Caledonia’s capital city, Noumea, widely known as the Paris of the Pacific. Noumea features fine gourmet French food and wine along with the other benefits of a active cosmo town. The restaurants here are some of the finest in the South Pacific. Colonized by France in 1853, New Caledonia has a distinct French influence when it comes to food and wine.

Noumea has well over hundred restaurants, ranging from sidewalk cafes to high-class bistros. French cuisine is easy to come by, but other selections include Indonesian, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, and African food. Seafood is a specialty of the Island, including spiny lobster, prawns, crab, and mangrove oysters. One of New Caledonia’s national dishes is Bougna, which is fish or chicken, mixed with sweet potatoes and bananas wrapped in banana leaves and then grilled covered in sand on hot stones. For the adventurous traveller on a gourmet vacation, you can taste a dish common with the locals, bat stew.

New Caledonia is the vacation destination you want to be: a sailing holiday, a gourmet holiday, or a time to just relax on the beaches.
