Xodre Cliffs

Falaises de Xodre

Black coral-limestone sea cliffs at the southeastern tip of Lifou, with waves crashing ashore and a natural pool below the cliffs for swimming.

Falaises de Xodre lies at the southeastern tip of Lifou, where the coast is made of dark, jagged coral limestone. At the foot of the cliffs is a natural seawater pool enclosed by reefs. The tribe provides guided walks down a path to the pool, where visitors can swim and snorkel in the clear water and hear local legends. The clifftop is a good spot for sunrise and photography. Because it is remote, visitors are few, and bookings must be made with the tribe in advance. Prices vary by activity. It is about 40 minutes' drive from Wé, and the last stretch is a dirt road.
