SAINT-MAURICE BAY
Leaving Vao to the north, you will have to take the first right to discover them, all carved wood, with their expressions as fascinating as amusing. This site owes its fame to the magnificent Kanak woods (totems) erected as a palisade around the monument. This monument commemorates the arrival on the island of Fathers Goujon and Chatelut and thus the first Catholic service given on August 12, 1848 on the island. James Cook would have passed by there in his time and tourists and locals never tire of it. It is one of the most picturesque places in the area.

cernée de nombreux totem aux faces intéressantes
Nous n'y sommes pas resté longtemps ... mais cela mérite le détour au moins pour les totems sculptés !
