  • Tadine
    Tadine is Maré's main centre and also home to the Port of Maré.
  • Natural Aquarium
    Located near Tadine, this natural seawater pool is teeming with marine life.
  • Cengeite & Wabao Villages
    With their coconut palms, thatched huts and stunning beaches, this south-western corner of the Maré is a must for visitors.
  • Saut du Guerrier (Warrior's Leap)
    Legend has it that local warrior Here Hnor, when cornered by the enemy, leapt across this 5km gap in the cliff.
  • The Leperhouse Well
    This 50m well opens into one of the deepest underground freshwater lakes in the world.
  • Trou de Bone
    This 40m deep limestone cave is one of Maré's most impressive sinkholes. The sheer sides drop to lush garden and a small waterhole.
  • La Roche
    This village is known for its lovely pink-hued Catholic church, built in 1866, which sits at the base of a 90m-high limestone cliff. A path north of the church leads up the cliff for stunning views over the village and sea.
  • Yeiwene Yeiwene Cultural Centre
    Located 2km from La Roche, this traditional Melanesian-style complex houses an exhibition room and library.
  • Beaches
    Excellent beaches can be found at Tawainedre, Peneloi, Medu and Metche.
  • Snorkelling
    Maré's sheltered bays are rated as some of the best snorkelling spots in New Caledonia. One of the best is Baie de Pede, near Cengeite. A pleasant 3km walk leads from Nengone Village to the bay.
