New Caledonia is a hotspot of global biodiversity. Nowhere else on the planet, will you find an area as small with as many species. Detached, about 60 million years ago, from the supercontinent of Gondwana, which included Australia and even Antarctica, New Caledonia was similar to a Noah's ark carrying part of the vegetation and elements of fauna of that period. This explains the unique endemic flora of New Caledonia and the endemism of some of its fauna. Do not leave without exploring all these amazing gardens!
Caledonian fauna is particularly unique and above all friendly.
Visiting New Caledonia is like having the privilege of going back millions of years in time…
The marine biodiversity of the archipelago is exceptional with 9,372 identified species including rare and endemic species.
