 General information
GPS coordinates : take off : 22°11'55" (22.1988)S; 166°21'14" (166.354)E - Elevation : 44 m.
landing : 22°11'58" (22.1996)S; 166°21'21" (166.356)E - Elevation : 7 m.
Take off :
The first one is at 100m on the ridge of the hill and the second one, less used, is on the top at 200m hight.
Landing :
In the field down the take off, at a glide ratio of 1.
Going there :
Get the expressway following Tontouta airport and 10 km after leaving Noumea take the road on the left to Gadji. Go on 5 km and turn right on the track. You have to drive 5 km more to reach the beach. The site is on your right.
Comments :
It is the main learning site and the wind comes in later than in Noumea. So if you are too late to fly in Ouen Toro you'll have a chance here.
Weather hazards :
When the white caps appear on the water, it's time to land.
