Hi guys, im visiting New Cal for a week as of the 7th to spend time with my girlfriend. Theres going to be a few
days where she will be working an i will be on my own, i was wondering if anybody could recommend me a way to get out to the reefs to go surfing, or no of anybody i could hitch a lift with (obviously i would pay for the lift),
and did anybody also know of anywhere i can rent a surfboard?

thanks a million in advance  :D:thanks:

Hi there. If you find anything out about this please let me know! I have tried to find out some info too. There is a river mouth somewhere that is apparently the only beach surf spot but otherwise a boat out to reefs costs at least $30 -$50. Surfing on a surfboard isn't popular in New Caledonia but windsurfing is pretty big.

Best of luck, Elise
