Île des Pins (New Caledonia)

White sandy beaches, turquoise-blue lagoons and rainforests are what makes this beautiful island so special (70 km South East of Grande Terre) . Remnants of a 4,000-year-old settlement were discovered here. In the 19th century it served as a prison colony; today, all that remains of the prison is the ruins. Daytrips from Nouméa to Vao, the largest city on Ile des Pins, are hugely popular among tourists.

Lautoka (Viti Levu, Fiji)
|
|
|
|
|
'The 'sugar city' of Lautoka, an economic and cultural centre, is the second-largest city on the Fiji Islands. The main palm-lined street gives the city a friendly feel. Mosques, Hindu temples and Christian churches bear witness to the turbulent past and the diverse population. There are several restaurants and hotels, but the highlight is an excellent art gallery at a hotel direct by the water. Lautoka is also the starting point for many tours to the neighbouring islands.
