Nouméa Travel Forum

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

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?
