47. New Caledonia Where is new caledonia? new caledonia is the third largest islandin the Pacific Region after Papua new Guinea and new Zealand. http://www.newcaledoniatourism-south.com/geography/index.cfm

Where is New Caledonia? The island is situated about 1,500 km from Australia, 1,700 km from New Zealand, 5,000 km from Tahiti, 7,000 km from Japan, 10,000 km from the West Coast of the USA and 20,000 km from France. The Mainland The mainland is where most people live, and which is the richest area of New Caledonia, is divided lengthwise by a range of mountains (Chaîne Centrale), the highest points of which are "Mount Panié" in the north (1,629 m) and "Mount Humboldt" in the south (1,618 m). Various species of trees can be found in these mountains. This unusual relief, very much like a backbone, divides the Mainland into 2 very different areas: The West Coast, a drier, temperate zone. There are fewer coconut trees but "niaouli" trees grow by the thousands and the endemic wildlife is rich. It is "cattle country," shaped by people who live at the pace of their cattle. There is an abundance of beautiful beaches too. Unlike its volcanic neighbors, New Caledonia is a fragment of an ancient continent which drifted awayt some 250 million years ago. Its flora and fauna evolved in isolation, and are now quite unique: 3500 recorded species of plants, three quarters of which occur only here; 4300 species of land animals, 1000 species of fish, 6500 species of marine invertebrates.
