YEJELE BEACH - MARE - LOYALTY ISLANDS - NEW CALEDONIA
LAST VISITED DEC 2017
Numbers may live clearer if yous click-expand image.
YEJELE BEACH is non the exclusively beach but is i of the biggest as well as is the best reasonably unopen to where the ships anchor inwards sheltered TADINE BAY.
This makes for pretty benign H2O weather inwards the 'lagoon' behind - rattling shallow (medium-light area) as well as could live confused equally the beach - the beach is the LIGHTEST sparse crescent inwards the epitome above.
In five visits I've non seen whatsoever waves breaking on the shore or experienced currents. However a keen snorkeling friend told me of some expert tidal currents means out thru the passes inwards the reef. Not many people company out there.
This moving-picture exhibit taken 2017 see - depression tide saw hard sand close H2O which was heavily trampled inwards to a greater extent than crowded key areas making for slow beach walking.
One downside of YEJELE is that key areas tend to larn crowded - figures since this was the exclusively send tour pick offered yesteryear the LEGEND inwards our 2017 visit. Also from Royal Caribbean's VOYAGER OF THE SEA 2018.
However yous tin give the axe avoid the crowds yesteryear heading for the western halt shown moving-picture exhibit higher upwardly this, or....
Every 50m or then was a local dressed inwards Aussie life-saver attire giving intense concentration to swimmers-snorkelers despite benign conditions.
CAVEAT - some reviews written report BLUEBOTTLES (the SW PACIFIC'S smaller less venomous Portuaguese Man of War stingers) but inwards five visits I receive got seen none. Nevertheless RASH VESTS similar the people higher upwardly volition minimise problems - also a no-brainer against Sun burn.
UPDATE - didn't bother to grab the omnibus downward to YEJELE inwards JAN 2019, but people returning mentioned enough of bluebottles. LADY TEZZA added prior to my writing this update that people on social media were complaining of the same simply today, over a calendar week later our visit. Maybe JAN/FEB is non such a expert fourth dimension to become into the H2O downward there.
TADINE
This is the pier expanse 11km NNW of YEVELE - but it is also fine for a prissy breal off the boat if yous don't desire to hop on the omnibus as well as become to YEJELA beach. I receive got done this on iii occasions.
Locals normally receive got a grouping inwards native costume singing close the pier - expert photograph ops. but this cheapskate doen't become fer cheesy stuff. Donations appreciated. Nearer the buses they receive got educate stalls offering much the same equally downward at the beach but on a to a greater extent than express scale.
Note nearest while of sand for CRUISE VISITORS non wanting to become downward to YEJELE BEACH is close top left of image. Not certain of access downward from the coastal route - equally a BEACH BLOGGER I should cheque these things. But at nearly 73 years onetime I simply can't live bothered. So sue me.
In the shot higher upwardly P AND O receive got their shore tours tent upwardly inwards representative yous haven't booked on the ship, but I've non seen other cruise lines practice this. But yous tin give the axe ever pay at the busees. In before cruises locals also had tour counters at considerable savings to the ships' materials but latest cruise these were absent. I heard they receive got closed plateau SINK HOLES to visitors because they got a fleck dangerous.
Locals receive got a bunch of stalls offering the park clothing, artifacts, snacks as well as drinks - but nowhere close the diversity of the beach stalls.
TADINE VILLAGE - Walking inland upwardly the colina nearly 500m gets yous to TADINE VILLAGE if yous experience similar a wander. The route upwardly has a expert footpath - slopes never higher upwardly moderate. Pretty apartment on top. The hamlet itself is quite pocket-size - tin give the axe walk all of it inwards abt 20mins.
TADINE PRECINCT - yous tin give the axe meet UPPER VILLAGE is non existent big.
Voyager of the Seas from the hamlet - 2018
Some hamlet facilities similar are inwards the pier expanse - this supermarket is exclusively a brusque distance upwardly the approach road.
The upper hamlet is no traditional S body of body of water hamlet of twisting dirt tracks as well as grass bures. This is the chief route exterior the novel school (background). Other world buildings consisted of town hall/police, as well as hospital. H5N1 pharmacist as well as a church building were on the approach road.
Even the backstreets are sealed. House at left was nearly the most delapidated I could meet - roof unopen to renewal. All houses featured western bungalow vogue alongside pastel stucco walls as well as metallic roofs. Most seemed to live on extensive blocks.
IF YOU FANCY JUST HANGING AROUND THE PIER AREA IT'S AN OKAY PLACE FOR H5N1 SWIM OR SNORKEL
The coastline to a greater extent than or less TADINE is all stone platforms as well as pocket-size bays but the H2O is clear, has some reasonable fringing coral as well as okay fishies.
Smaller puddle (PASTEL PURPLE) has expert entry alongside a laid of stairs where LADY TEZZA is standing. Very protected, expert for kids but a fleck deep if they can't swim. Open to body of body of water via inaccessible cracks inwards stone platform.
There is no sand inwards the expanse (the nearest is a pocket-size beach nearly 800m northward - access may live difficult)
Best bet for sunbathers is on the boards higher upwardly summation nearby apartment concrete where people were sunning on towels.
PACIFIC JEWEL - SEPT 2014
ACCESSING MARE - most visitors are cruise-line passengers but I i time saw a van alongside backpackers inwards TADINE - it's possible to wing inwards alongside AIR CALEDONIE, BETICO run a fast ferry several times a calendar week as well as at that spot are several accommodation options including AIRBNB.
The isle is also a pop telephone telephone inwards for cruising yachts.
