My favourite place crystal clear water great snorkelling and swimming 🏊‍♀️ the markets are fantastic best place for hair braiding and don’t forget to take your passports on shore to get stamped for a couple of dollars 💵

We did the red bus tour and hop on hop off bus around the island and saw the sights we booked on shore half the cost of the ship not a great place for swimming but plenty of cafes and places to eat best place to buy duty free and can get passports stamped for free at information centre 😁

Lifou Isle, New Caledonia

Least favourite place we did the Polynesian tour through the ship which included a cooking demonstration and a visit to one of their parliament huts need reef shoes as beaches are all coral and rocky we hired a kayak and snorkelled but you need to be a strong swimmer as the best spots are quite a distance from shore we did see green sea turtles 🐢 not much shade on beach 🏝
