Taxis are readily available outside the arrivals hall, meeting incoming flights. The journey to Nouméa is approximately 52 km (32 miles) and takes about 45-60 minutes. Fares are typically fixed and can be quite expensive due to the long distance. It is not usually necessary to book in advance.
Several international and local car rental agencies (such as Avis, Hertz, Europcar, and Point Rouge) have service desks inside the airport terminal. Renting a car is a popular and convenient way to explore the main island. It is highly recommended to book your vehicle online in advance for better rates and to guarantee availability.
There are no standard public bus routes that directly serve La Tontouta Airport. The main alternative to taxis are airport shuttle services ('navettes'). These are shared or private minibuses that provide door-to-door transfers to hotels in Nouméa and are a more cost-effective option. These shuttles must be booked in advance.
