    A fun time in Noumea to visit the aquarium. There are even dark rooms with lighting to see the deep water fish coloring. Very well done.  more »

    Really enjoyed our visit. We came on a cruise ship and were in Noumea on a Sunday. Most of the shops were closed so we ended up at the aquarium. We had a great time. Very reasonably priced which was nice compared to all the other inflated tourist prices around the city. The turtle enclosure was the best part.
  • By Elijah
    This is by far the smallest aquarium I've been to. However, despite it being small it has quite a large collections of different marine species. Quite enjoyed it as it is nice and quiet unlike other aquariums in bigger cities. The entrance of the aquarium is somewhat obscured, just a tiny path through the fence and trees... Could easy miss it if you aren't paying attention.
