Access and Facilities

1 and a half hours drive north of Noumea, is the small town Yate. If you continue 10 km further you will reach the bungalow and camping area of Gite Iya.

The camping is very basic, only the price is quite high ( 1.500 Franc, is around 12 Euro ). It is located on a small bay with good snorkelling possibilities, but you have to walk over 100m of sharp stones before you reach the water.
