EXPLORING the UNSEEN Side of New Caledonia - What You Didn't Know!

Discovering the secret 8th continent. According to scientists this is the secret 8th continent of the world: Zealandia...and according to the BBC, they only recently discovered its existence. Somehow New Caledonia is hated by many vloggers and even though its an island paradise, filled with stunning beaches and the local people are some of the most friendly people you could meet.
New Caledonia is France’s Australia, where they copied the English and set up a prison colony in an island far away.
It is a small island, so Noumea the capital is not the same as a large capital city that we are used to.

Culture - New Caledonia

????

A real cultural mosaic, New Caledonia's diversity and history are some of its most valuable assets. Kanaks (indigenous people), Europeans (Caldoches), Asians and Polynesians all share their ways of life and authentic experiences: participate in a Kanak welcome ceremony, sleep in a hut with the tribe and enjoy bougna (traditional Kanak dish), attend a rodeo with the bushmen, or enjoy the French touch in Nouméa (gourmet meals, delicatessens, cocktail bars, etc.)!

Tjibaou Cultural Centre, Noumea
Anse Vata, Noumea
Isle of Pines
Blue River Park, Great South
Moindou, West Coast

Huge Coconut Crab!! ???? (UNLIKE Any Other Crab on Earth!!) South Pacific Islands

???????? The Ultimate Fiji Food Tour:
???? T-shirts:
???? Ghost Chili:

LAU ISLANDS, FIJI - We’re in the remote Lau Islands group in Fiji, only accessible by boat, and today we’re going to Vuaqava Island, where they are known for their coconut crabs!

First of all, thank you to my friend Andhy Blake for arranging my trip to Fiji: and to Captain Cook Cruises ( for taking us on this once in a lifetime Fiji cruise.

We docked near the uninhabited Vuaqava Island, Lau Islands, Fiji, which is known for its natural beauty, incredible seas, and also for being an island full of coconut crabs! Coconut crabs are definitely unique, and they are a huge delicacy in Fiji and for the local population on the Lau Islands. They all mentioned that they coconut crabs are so tasty and so delicious that they don’t need any extra seasoning or cooking - all you have to do is boil them for about 10 - 15 minutes and eat. The crabs eat mostly a diet of coconut, so they have a sweet coconut taste to them, and the fat in the stomach (similar to the tomalley on other crabs), is like a natural coconut crab pudding with a complexity of flavor. It was an amazing experience to be with local Fijians on a remote island eating coconut crab.

Next up on this Fijian crab tour we visited another island - Totoya Island, Lau Islands, Fiji where we had the honor to cook and eat another Fijian food delicacy of land crabs, cooked in coconut milk. The crabs were boiled then fully deshelled, then mixed with onions and chiles, and lots of coconut milk, and re-filled back into their shells. They were boiled again until the coconut milk thickened into a creamy crab sauce. You eat them with a fresh squeeze of local lime and chili, and it’s something truly magically delicious.

What a day of Fijian food and the freshest crabs from the source!

Lena Erdil and Maria Andres: Exploring New Caledonia

Exploring New Caledonia

A short movie about Watergirls Maria Andres and Lena Erdil exploring New Caleldonias main Island and the Islands Lifou and Isle of Pines.

With the Windsurfing World Cup scheduled for the end of November in Noumea, María Andrés and Lena Erdil decided to head to New Caledonia early and explore this beautiful country whilst preparing for the last world cup event of the year.

Located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, it is obviously a very exotic destination. But what is amazing is not only the colors, the vegetation, the clear waters or the waves. The atmosphere in New Caledonia is unique for many other reasons, with this short clip we hope to share some of the amazing New Cal vibes with all of you!!

New Caledonia Travel Vlog

A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to be asked to be among a group of women to go to New Caledonia and work with Tourism and help raise awareness for the country/destination, as well as highlighting and learning about eco/ocean conservation.
It was 5 days, of adventure, fun, connection, femininity, ocean loving and exploring, nature walks, photography, story telling, story sharing, vulnerability,and humanity at it's finest.
There is something so indescribably raw and beautiful about being surrounded by pure feminine energy. it's both healing, and heart warming to be able to express and share so honestly and openly knowing that your sisters have your back, and are there for you, just as you are there for them.
This was an immeasurably powerful trip, and I am so honoured and thankful to have had the opportunity.

Thank you to Curvy (@curvycreative), New Caledonia Tourism (@Newcaledoniatourism) and @qantas for making it possible!

Here's how the week went down...
ENJOY!
