Kuare catamaran
Kuare is a 46 ft Bahia Catamaran from Fontaine Pajot with two double cabins with ensuite bathrooms and two twin cabins. It is ideal for groups of 6-8 passengers.
Offshore surf in SE trade winds
The South Pacific can be tricky in winter with the predominent wind being SE. Most south-facing Pacific coasts are onshore or cross shore in these conditions. New Caledonia is similar to Indo, with surf on the west coast which means offshore in SE trades. This, combined with the fact that New Caledonia is a swell magnet serving up Indo-style power, makes it a fantastic winter surf destination.

Your expert local skipper and crew will add a French flavour to your trip. The food on board is healthy and tasty ensuring your body's got fuel to burn when you're in the water. Sit back in the afternoon and enjoy the sunset as you knock back a few cold local beers or sip on french wine. Kuare lacks for nothing where food and drink is concerned.
