Snow white sandy beaches, bays and coves. A blend of French and Melanesian cultures. The traditional to the sophisticated. These islands can be enjoyed in a level of comfort to suit you. There are palm thatched bungalows metres from the waters edge to a luxury 5 star hotel.

Isle of PinesThis land is blessed with a semi-tropical to tropical climate and the warm Coral Sea and South Pacific Ocean are always close by. You can snorkel crystal clear waters or try a water sport like windsurfing, water-skiing, sailing or fishing.
