Two countries, two faces very different : geology and history of the men did not allow they resemble each other. Going into the matter, you would discover some similarity.

formation, varieties, reproduction. Endangered
...open your eyes..

At the edge of the shore, in less than one meter of water deep , a little society has been founded : one branch of coral, two blue fishes and a starfish. Sometimes a sea urchin with its long needles.

Grouped in continuous compact colonies or isolated in "patates" (potatoes), they form the reefs barrier and fringing.

The lagoon is linked with coral reef.

A "reef barrier" girdles the majority of the islands of Polynesia and New Caledonia. For this island, it can be rather far away from the coast (especially in north and the south, more than 60 km).

The lagoon

Reefs, corals, shells, fishes and sharks.

The Paradise..
The tropical islands evoke white sand beaches, coconuts, sun, coral reefs with their multicoloured fishes. The peaceful life and the tanned skins form part of the dream too. The tiredness, the time it will make, the housing quality or relationships will undoubtedly alter this vision, but without being able to spoil the pleasure of the relaxed way of life, of the beauty of many landscapes, nor of the pleasant average temperature.

You will perhaps not suspect either the problems of these remote countries. Hibiscus tour makes some steps in this direction for you ("that the life").

May be you do not imagine the problems of these remote countries. Hibiscustour recalls some of them for you. See : That's the life and Tribes.
