KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Noumea

  • Opting for car rentals in Noumea has various advantages for travelers eager to explore the captivating region. These rentals offer convenience and flexibility, enabling you to freely discover the area's stunning attractions and scenic spots on your own terms. By renting a car, you can uncover hidden gems and the remote regions that may be inaccessible through public transportation. With Noumea car rentals, you can effortlessly explore remarkable destinations like the breathtaking Amédée Lighthouse, the tranquil Kuendu Beach, and the picturesque Parc Provincial de la Rivière Bleue, which may not easily be accessed by public transportation means.
  • If you fly to Noumea, you’ll likely land at Magenta Airport (GEA), about 4.8 km away. After landing, you can easily find the car rental desk for the several car rental agencies that provide the services within the airport terminal. Head over to the counter and present the needed documents, and you will be directed to where to pick up your car. The popularity of airport car hires stems from the convenience of picking up a rental immediately upon arrival and swiftly beginning your vacation, making the process seamless and hassle-free.
  • When driving car rentals in Noumea, there are a few unique aspects to be aware of to avoid challenges. It's important to note that the city follows right-hand driving, and overtaking is on the left. Noumea has a roundabout-heavy road system, so familiarize yourself with roundabout rules and give way to vehicles already inside. Keep an eye out for pedestrians, as jaywalking is common, and they may cross the road unexpectedly. Be cautious of narrow streets and limited parking spaces in certain areas, making it advisable to plan for parking arrangements.
  • Driving car rentals in Noumea can present difficulties during peak traffic hours, typically from 7:30 am to 9:30 am and 4 pm to 6 pm, when congestion is expected on major roads such as Boulevard Vauban and Promenade Roger Laroque. Additionally, Noumea experiences a rainy season from November to March, which can result in slippery road conditions and reduced visibility. The city's hilly terrain can pose challenges for some drivers, especially those not accustomed to driving on steep slopes.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Noumea?

    When it comes to driving in Noumea, opting for a compact or mid-size car suitable for navigating the city's narrow streets and limited parking spaces is recommended. Considering the hilly terrain in certain areas, a car with good engine power and handling capabilities would be advantageous. Due to the potential for heavy rainfall during the rainy season, a vehicle with reliable traction control and good wet-weather handling would also be beneficial.

  • What’s the speed limit in Noumea?

    Noumea enforces varying speed limits to ensure road safety. In suburban areas, the speed limit is set at 70 mph (110 km/h), while on highways, drivers are expected to adhere to the same maximum speed. Within residential zones, the speed limit is reduced to 30 km/h (19 mph), promoting a safer environment for pedestrians and residents. The speed limit is 110 km/h (68 mph) on the outside built-up areas. Avoid falling on the wrong side of the law by exceeding the speed limit.

  • Where are the best places to park in Noumea?

    When it comes to parking in Noumea, there are several options to consider. One convenient choice is to utilize the designated parking lots and garages available in popular areas like the city center or near attractions such as Place des Cocotiers. You can also look for street parking in permitted areas, keeping in mind any signage or restrictions. However, due to limited parking spaces in certain parts of the city, planning and exploring alternative transportation options is advisable when visiting crowded or busy areas to avoid potential parking challenges. The average car parking fee per hour is about ₣216.50 (around $2).
