This gem of southern New Caledonia quite rightly lays claim to the title of 'the closest island to paradise'. The Isle of Pines (Ile des Pins) is bordered by crystal clear waters, stunning white sands, bathes in the warm Pacific sun and is dotted with outrigger canoes that are the pride of its inhabitants, the Kunies. 

Abundant in natural beauty and breathtaking landscapes, your visit to Ile des Pins will take you on an incredible journey into the great outdoors.
