New Caledonia is a French territory situated in the South Pacific, East of Australia, North-West of New-Zealand (about 400 km long, and 70 Km wide). It is a tropical island with nice weather all year round. The trade winds provided a constant nice breeze. The best hunting period is during the rut (from mid July to mid August), which is our winter season : fresh night 10°C or 50 °F with days temperature 18 – 20 °C (or 64 – 68 °F).

We can organize hunts from beginning of July till November.
There are numerous deer in New Caledonia, so it is quiet common to see in between 200 and 400 deers in a day.

Rusa hunting is open all year round, but the stags lose their antlers in the end of the year, and the next antlers will be completely developed around end of June.
