This page brings together public shark-human incident records associated with New Caledonia. It combines a chronological incident list with year, activity, outcome and species-confidence context from the same public database used by the Shark Incidents map.

A recorded incident count is not a personal risk rate. Coastline length, water use, tourism, surfing and fishing participation, reporting practices and the survival of historical sources all influence how many records appear for a country or territory.

Each record links to its source-backed incident page and shows its event date, verification status, classification, outcome and species confidence where supported.

Data quality

Older records can have approximate dates or locations, and historical species identifications may be uncertain. Unknown values remain visible rather than being treated as known.

For current beach decisions, follow local authorities rather than interpreting historical map density as a forecast.
