Took a trip around several Bay areas with Abaca Cruise for a few hours, promotional ride. Sunny day, nice weather and had a great time with Captain Yves and Sailor Nicole who outlined numerous packages and options they had for their Catamaran boat trips. The interior is very spacious with a few bedrooms, very comfortable. Highly recommend.

Enjoy a 4-hours private water taxi excursion on the world's largest lagoon and second largest great barrier reef, with a personal skipper. A favorite tip for snorkelers, Noumea Turtle Tour is specially made for cruisers. We pick up you directly at the cruise ship terminal, to go to "Signal Island". Unknown from the crowd of your boat, it is the best spot to snorkel and swim with turtles in their local environment, at only 30 minutes from Noumea with our water taxi. You will be able to enjoy the magnificent white sand beach, historical trail around this island and beautiful, natural scenery brimming with marine, bird and animal life. This tour is reserved for people under 70 years old and in good physical condition. It's a physical inflatable bumpy boat ride to go to the Island. Swim with the turtles at Signal Island, snorkel all year round without stinger suits in this unique, protected reef island.
Inclusions: All taxes, fees and handling charges, National Park fees, Driver/guide, Port pickup and drop-off, Use of Snorkelling equipment
Exclusions: Alcoholic drinks (available to purchase), Food and drinks
My husband and I had pre-booked this day trip before we left on our cruise, but some just found these guys in the carpark near the visitor's centre when we disembarked. The first pleasant surprise was the "water taxi" - it was a really fun ride! And the island, wow, it's stunning and so few people! And the best part - we saw so many turtles! The water is shallow and clear, and they lent us pool noodles (we had our own snorkels & masks & fins), so you were able to just draft along following a turtle grazing on the seagrass on the bottom! In fact they were so close, I would be filming and the swell would push me a bit too close so I would have to stop filming and paddle backwards to give the turtle some space! Would highly recommend this trip to anyone going to Noumea.

If you want to take your time to see the attractions (the Tchou Tchou train is sometimes a bit short at some stops) then rent one of these! Great fun to drive and always fun to do your own thing for a more "local" experience.

I have Snorkeled and Scuba Dived all over the world for over 50 years. This is absolutely the best Snorkeling I have ever experienced!!! SCHOOLS of beautiful fish and healthy vibrant corals of MANY varieties!!! It changes ever 50' or so as you move around and change your location. Yes it is hard on your feet and requires a water taxi that you should prepay, and finding shade will be an issue, but totally worth it!!! Not for Beach combers. We are going on another cruise just to return here and experience this amazing place again. The number, variety, and beauty of the marine life here is unequaled by any place else I have ever been!!!
