Backpacking in New Caledonia is limited mostly due to the prohibitive prices and high standard of living in the country. Most backpackers visiting New Caledonia head out to the Loyalty Islands to marvel at the beaches and take in some cultural interaction and sightseeing, with tribal hut accommodation available.
Beach lovers can also head out to Isle of Pines with its laid back holiday atmosphere and here there are a couple of budget guesthouses.
