Luengoni Beach
Plage de Luengoni
A long white-sand beach on Lifou’s south coast, with powder-fine sand and water shading from turquoise to deep blue. Turtles are common, and it is counted among the most beautiful beaches in the South Pacific.
Luengoni Beach lies on the southeast coast of Lifou, in the Luengoni tribal area. Its white sand stretches for several kilometers, backed by coral limestone cliffs, and the water shifts from pale blue to deep blue. Few people come here. The shallow water is good for swimming and snorkelling, and sea turtles can often be seen. There are no commercial facilities on the beach, but the tribe provides a few thatched shelters and simple meals, and guesthouses are nearby. It is about 45 minutes by car from Easo wharf, and most cruise visitors come on island day tours. It can be combined with the nearby Luengoni gem caves.
