Islandtime Magazine - Winter 2023

In our bumper Winter Edition, we shine a spotlight on New Caledonia - a destination that flies under the radar with Kiwi holidaymakers. While many are aware of the French influence and the cosmopolitan city of Nouméa, New Caledonia offers much more. It is a vast island wilderness that provides an incredible variety of experiences. Plus, you can add in dreamy outer islands like the Isle of Pines, Lifou, Ouvea and Maré. Fiji's Lau Group and the island of Kadavu are in the same boat. They are rarely experienced by Fiji bound visitors, but in this issue, we give you a taste of their magic as passengers on-board Captain Cook Cruises. Our extremely well-travelled writer described it as one of his best trips ever!
