New Caledonia Island

New Caledonia

Distant land, land of contrasts, pristine land... New Caledonia is a diverse and unique destination. Bathed by clear waters at the heart of the Pacific Ocean, lulled year round by gentle trade winds, le Caillou (the Pebble) has more to offer than just its heavenly beaches and brilliant sunshine.



New Caledonia offers an immersion into the magic that is the largest and probably most beautiful lagoon in the world... seasoned diver or not, take advantage of this! Forget about everything, whilst being wrapped up in the majestic silence of the sea.

Bottled

Diving in New Caledonia, from North to South and in the Loyauté Islands, is an invitation to wonder: the discovery of an unexpected world where everything is colour, curiosity, and where time has no hold.

A multitude of sites and species

The Reef Aboré in the Dumbéa pass, Casy Islet in the Bay of Prony, Epave de la Joliette (the Wreck of Joliette) in Thio, the Rift of Bayes in Poindimié or jardin d’Eden (the Garden of Eden)in the Ile des Pins ... A hundred heavenly sites are spread across the archipelago. There is an inexhaustible number of places to explore and the fauna is outstanding: parrots, blue grouper, grouper, eagle rays, reef sharks, lobsters and their local cousins, the "popinée", as well as turtles and dugongs.
Shellfish lovers will also discover a multitude of marine molluscs, including the beautiful porcelain Cyprae Niger, or the conch. Marine life changing amidst a luxuriant and colourful flora, caves lined with bryozoans and sea fans, sponges in unexpected forms, fluorescent corals in corollas, balls or bushes, urchin tiaras, starfish, crinoids ...

Wild and Unspoilt

There is no chance of bumping into other divers while exploring the deep! Far from mass tourism, diving in New Caledonia is wild and unspoilt, it is respectful of nature's treasures, but also of the needs and ability of the divers.
The serenity of the ocean is accessible to all. The services offered range from simple introductory toscuba potholing, through baptisms, internships and licenses, to photo essays and night diving.

Free diving

Aimed at both beginners and experienced divers, free diving is a thrilling experience.
Using constant weight or free immersion, descending along the a cable to reach the coral and multicoloured fish provides an unparalleled sense of freedom to enjoy the warmth of the water which is always between 20 and 28 ° C. Idyllic scenery, absolute tranquillity, and guaranteed pleasure...
