So many islands, but I thought this one was rather unique with it's pines. This New Caledonia, a chain of islands (Nouvelle-Caledonie) and a special collectivity of France located in the southwest Pacific Ocean about 750 miles east of Australia. It is nicknamed l'île la plus proche du paradis ("the closest island to Paradise"). The pines found on New Caledonia are the Araucaria is a genus of evergreen coniferous trees in the family Araucariaceae :). There are 19 species in the genus with the highest natural distribution in New Caledonia. Refreshing look from the typical palm :).
