Finally with Wallis & Futuna and Polynesians, the country became the multi cultural mix that represents best the local community. 40, 45% kanaks a little less Europeans and the rest are the minorities. Many have been mixed with sometimes nearly 8 different bloods origins (métis)

This video was intended to show my view of a beautiful part of the world as a destination to my friends, family (and the world through U tube)in my very short stay in Noumea as a tourist.

It is not entended to be a political 'sounding board' for the rights & wrongs in the South Pacific area. If you want to discuss regional politics please find other channels or forums to vent your opinions, as this is not the place to do so.

Thank You

When I was younger, I worked on a Norwegian freighter and one of the ports of call was Noumea. By far, the jewel of the South Pacific as I felt that I was in the South Pacific but also in Europe. This was in the late sixties. It was absolutely breath taking sailing in from Fuji.

Another lovely & fascinating corner of the French-speaking world. Quite little known, with a low tourist profile.

enrique05's incorrect. The Melanesians are New Caledonia's natives. The French are the colonists. The island could be Kanak if that independence referendum or something comes through in 2014.
