About this site
New Caledonia is a French territory in Melanesia, surrounded by one of the largest lagoon systems in the world and a barrier reef that stretches for hundreds of kilometres. These coordinates sit off the southwest coast, in the waters near Noumea. Dive operators in this area typically run boat trips out through the lagoon toward the reef passes.
