Sail!

In brief :

Around Noumea, there are many islets to discover with your family aboard a rented sailing boat or catamaran. Once you will lift the anchor, remember to install the troll; you will ensure this way your evening meal! The lagoon offers a number of anchorages and chances are you will discover a deserted islet. For sure, your boat will take you to the Ile des Pins or to Iles Loyauté (i.e. Loyalty Islands) with natural riches carefully preserved.
Whether you are a spectator or a player, many regattas are organized departing from the marina in the capital city. New Caledonia is also a stopover for cruise ships: this is another way to discover it by boat.
