Photographed on the eve of departure for first Australian shell collecting and diving expedition to Chesterfield Reef.

Situated in the eastern Coral Sea some 550 km west of the northern tip of Grande Terre, New Caledonia, the Chesterfield Group consists of several groups of islets and reefs scattered around the Chesterfield and Bellona Plateaux. Included in the group are the Îles Chesterfield (Chesterfield Islands/Isles/Reefs, Rêcifs et Îles Chesterfield) and the Bampton Reefs. The Bellona Reefs, 60 km to the south, are a separate formation but are usually included in the Chesterfield Group.
