Gouaro Deva, Protected natural area in Bourail, New Caledonia.

The Gouaro Deva reserve spans 7,500 hectares of diverse ecosystems including tropical forests, mangroves, and white sand beaches along the western coast.

The establishment of Gouaro Deva as a protected zone marked a turning point in New Caledonia's environmental conservation efforts during the late 20th century.

The indigenous Kanak people maintain strong connections to Gouaro Deva through traditional practices and knowledge passed down through generations.

Visitors can access five different hiking trails ranging from 5.5 to 7 kilometers, with the Maison de Déva providing information and mountain bike rentals.

The reserve contains the largest dry forest in New Caledonia and borders a UNESCO World Heritage listed lagoon with exceptional marine biodiversity.
