Ile De Pins
Ile De Pins
Capt. James Cook named it in 1774 for the tree-rich landscape, but it's the gloriously clear waters offshore, bordered by some of the most stunning beaches (Kuto and Kanumera are the best known) in the entire South Pacific, that enthrall travel-weary visitors. This is an island made for slow bicycle rides... leisurely snorkeling... long days on deserted, white-sand strands... French picnic baskets... watching a woodcarver at work in his home... sailing a pirogue outrigger into Upi Bay to see the moon on the water.
