Peng Beach
Plage de Peng
A quiet white-sand bay on Lifou's west coast, framed by coconut palms and reef rocks, and a classic spot for watching the sunset.
Plage de Peng lies on the west coast of Lifou near the Peng tribal area. The bay is curved, with fine white sand, calm shallow water and black reef rocks on either side, typical of the Loyalty Islands seascape. Far fewer visitors come here than to the Easo area, making it good for swimming, snorkelling and picnics. The sunset over the sea is superb in the evening. Some stretches of water belong to tribal land, and a small entry fee may be charged. There are no shops, so bring your own drinking water. It is about a 30-minute drive from the capital, Wé.
