Passe de Mato

★★★★☆ (44)

Falling outside the barrier, the site is located in the deep south, 2 hours from Nouméa. The plateau starts at 10m and descends to 70m. It is subject to swell.

We’ll see the classic fauna of the outer drop-off, with lots of reef fish and macro on the wall. Channel with pelagic sightings in the blue.
