Matthew Island and Hunter Island

Islands of New Caledonia

Matthew Island and Hunter Island are two uninhabited volcanic islands in the South Pacific, 300 kilometres (190 mi) east of New Caledonia and south-east of Vanuatu. The pair, which lie 70 km (43 mi) apart, are claimed by Vanuatu as part of Tafea Province, and considered by the people of Aneityum part of their custom ownership, but also claimed by France as part of New Caledonia.
