Are you looking for a vacation destination that is rightfully breathtaking? You might be considering of somewhere that offers beaches and sailing opportunities, plus the cuisine and ambience of a metropolitan city. A ideal holiday that has all of this is a trip to the French colony of New Caledonia, situated about halfway between Fiji and Australia.

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 are seeking for, New Caledonia is situated in a part of the Pacific that has the biggest coral lagoon in the globe. Sailing charters are available and with the help of the trade winds you can sail out of the capital city of Noumea along the coastline, past numerous small islands that dot the ocean around the New Caledonia. The island also offers other outdoor activities such as scuba diving, snorkel diving, horseback riding, canoeing, and kayaking.

If you were hoping for a gourmet holiday, New Caledonia has almost everything you could want. New Caledonia’s capital city, Noumea, is often referred to as the Paris of the Pacific. Noumea offers fine gourmet French food and wine along with the other benefits of a bustling cosmopolitan town. The restaurants here are some of the finest in the South Pacific. Colonised by France in 1853, New Caledonia has a distinct French influence when it comes to food.

There are plenty of eateries, ranging from sidewalk cafes to high-class bistros. French cuisine is easy to come by, but other options include Indonesian, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, and African food. Seafood is a speciality 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, combined with sweet potatoes and bananas wrapped in banana leaves and then baked covered in sand on hot stones. For the adventurous traveller on a gastronome holiday, you can taste a dish favourite with the locals, bat stew.

You can make a vacation to New Caledonia anything you want it to be: a sailing holiday, a gourmet holiday, or a time to just relax by the beach.
