Good luck to you Finch_Breeder.

Just make sure you get to see those Peale's Parrot Finches and even take some photos!

It's a fantastic place to go, my mum was born there. If staying only on Vila get a bus out of the town to see the best bird life, also the ferry over to Irririki and walk up hill into bush away from resort (and find the ruins of the hospital if you can, as that part of Irririki used to be returning to natural bush and had lots of finch sized hiding places in amount the old walls).

Hope you have a great time and let us know what you think of it.



We have just booked a cruise around the New Caledonia and Vanuatu area in September as well. It will be my first cruise and I am so looking forward to the break. When I get back it will be straight into the canary breeding season.

I saw that there is a tour to Parc Forestier sanctuary on Noumea, that appears to be a bird park. Has anyone been there?
