The Loyalty Islands, New Caledonia

The Loyalty Islands

Wrenched from the barrier reef and planted in the ocean, these are three oases of beauty and diversity. From the Lekin cliffs to Chateaubriand beach, the Loyalty Islands portray a multitude of different, but always smiling faces.

On Ouvéa, the combined beauty of the sky, the lagoon and the flora have earned it the title of the closest island to paradise. This is a well-deserved title for the island which offers a fabulous beach of white sand stretching for almost 25 km, majestic coconut plantations and extraordinary diving sites.

Lifou is characterised by its variety of scenery, combining immaculate beaches, steep cliffs, deep forests and impressive caves. The largest of the Loyalty Islands is probably the one that offers the greatest contrast, whilst also catering perfectly for tourists who come to visit.

As for Maré, the intense, wild beauty of its scenery, and the deep connection that the Mareans have with nature, have given this island a very personal identity. The island will leave a lasting impression on those who take the time to discover it.
