aquarium des lagons Nouméa
A la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, un scientifique, docteur Catala, va réaliser les premières recherches sur la faune et flore du lagon calédonien et décide de mettre en place un aquarium avec son épouse. Celui-ci est finalement inauguré en 1956. Ils présenteront très rapidement au public des attractions tels que des nautiles vivants, ce qui était une première mondiale à l'époque. En 1977, la ville rachète l'aquarium et depuis les recherches se poursuivent et vont même jusqu'à donner naissance à une coopération avec l'aquarium de Toba (Japon) qui porte en particulier sur l'étude des nautiles.

NEW CALEDONIA: Beautiful walk along BAY OF ORPHANS in NOUMEA (FRENCH TERRITORY, PACIFIC OCEAN) ????
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's go to the Pacific Ocean and let's visit the capital of the French territory of New Caledonia, the beautiful city of Noumea. Here we are going to walk along the 'Bay of Orphans' (or, Orphelinat Bay) which is located along the West coast of Noumea close to the Bay of Lemons. “Orphelinat” Bay is now mainly a very nice residential area that also includes South Port Marina. The waterfront has been converted into a pedestrian and bicycle path lined with palm trees for athletes and families to tour the bays.
Nouméa is the capital of the South Pacific archipelago and overseas French territory New Caledonia. Situated on the main island, Grand Terre, it's known for beaches and its blend of French and native Kanak influences. The Jean-Marie Tjibaou Cultural Centre showcases Kanak heritage, and the Musée de Nouvelle-Calédonie has exhibits from across the Pacific region. The Aquarium des Lagons introduces local marine life.
