Nouméa

So I'll be hanging around Noumea for around a week waiting for a weather window to sail back to Australia. Looking for advice on things to do, places to eat such as cafes and bakeries and places to see before we haed off.

Cheers

Going on a cruise on the 9th of jan and the first stop is noumea on the 12th of jan does anyone know or can help with what there is to do and see we arrive at 800 am and leaving at 530 in the afternoon. thankyou

How far is the Le Meridien Hotel from where the Cruise ships dock. Is it close enough to catch a taxi cab.

Hi all Just wondering if anyone could tell me if the Carsud airport bus (the 400F one) runs on Sundays. We'll be arriving about lunchtime. Cheers Paul

We are visiting Noumea on a P&O Cruise from 3pm - 11pm and am interested to know if there are day tours the Escapade Island Resort and how do we get there and back.

Regarding Le Petit Train in Noumea. What is the frequency of the service on a sunday (cruise ship arrival). Also does the service permit one to get off and then catch the next one that comes along to allow for exploring different areas Regards Peter

We hope to try Le Petit train in September; What is the cost? can we hop-on and hop off at different locations? Thank you.

Do you have information about Mass times on Sunday?

I am trying to plan my connection from Magenta domestic airport to Tontouta international airport coming back from Ouvea and leaving to Vanuatu: 17:40 scheduled arrival by Air Caledonie from Ouvea to Magenta 19:20 scheduled departure by Air Calin to Port Vila from Tontouta. I've been once to Noumea and remember that there was a highway linking Noumea and Tontouta and that means that taxi drives ca. 90kph there and makes 40km from Magenta to Tontouta in appr. half an hour. Is it true, and for early evening Monday traffic? I guess AirCaldenoie on domestic flights can be not quite punctual.. At the same time I think airCalin with departure to Vanuatu should not very much strict if we appeaqr say not 45 min before the departure but only 30 min?

Does anyone know the times the markets are open in Noumea?

We are visiting Noumea on a P&O Cruise from 3pm - 11pm and am interested to know what we should do while we are there. I'm not interested in any of the organised tours from the ship as sitting in a coach for period doesn't do it for me. Any advice from previous cruisers would be appreciated.

Could anyone tell me the price of the train for adults and Children. Thanks

I have seen this trip advertised however I cannot find a price in AUS$ or CFP? Can anyone advise the cost? How much would a cup of tea and a sandwich or bagette cost in Noumea? Thanks Carol

Hello, I am wondering if there are boats that travel from Australia to Noumea. We are looking for a cheaper way to travel between the two places than via air. Thanks!

How much does it cost to eat in Nouméa? I mean restaurants, cafes and groceries. I have read in the travel tips that imported foodstuffs are very expensive. But can you buy local produce at reasonable prices? If so, what is available? Is there anywhere that's cheap to eat out?
