A land of adventures, nature, and traditions, the south of New Caledonia hosts annual culinary, cultural, and sporting events.
Take, for example, the markets, where locals and tourists meet. Here, curious visitors from all backgrounds gather to discover the treasures of Caledonian produce: yam, sweet potato, taro, fresh fish, seafood, mango… A feast for the eyes and the taste buds to be discovered every week, especially in the Yaté region.
In spring, a different pleasure awaits you: hiking. Nature running enthusiasts will be satisfied with the Trail des Cagous in April, the Festival des Trails in June, or the Gigawatt in August. Performances, good cheer, and stunning landscapes await you.
And above all, don’t forget the festivals organized by the tribes, the soul and memory of the island! The clans of Unia, Waho, and Goro are particularly active in the Great South. Thus, between the plant festival, the coconut festival, and the sea festival, everyone works to celebrate their heritage. Festivities open to all, to be followed on our agenda!
