Top Grande Terre Speed Boat Rentals

Skid from your cruise ship to a bouncy water taxi and skip across the water to Signal Island, a quieter snorkeling location. Take your mind off National Park fees and taxes and focus on the important things: coral in blue water, the ponderous paddles of turtles. This small private tour gets you into the water without extra hassle.

Departing directly from Noumea's cruise terminal, this half-day tour offers a chance to see the wild side of one of the world's largest lagoons. Head to Signal Island, a quiet white-sand island which few tourists take the time to visit. Swim in water frequented by turtles and see colorful corals and reef fish. Arrive back in Port refreshed in the early afternoon, leaving plenty of time to see the sights in Noumea.
