Full Day Water Taxi to Amedee Island from Noumea

About this activity

Discover Amedee Island and its magical coral-fringed lagoon, just 45 minutes by water taxi from Noumea. Located in the heart of a protected marine reserve near the barrier reef, the island is renowned for its crystal-clear waters and exceptional marine life.

Swim with turtles and snorkel all year round without stinger suits, discovering colorful fish and coral reefs.

You can visit its 56-meter-high lighthouse, the only metal lighthouse in France, and climb it with a pass (300 XPF per person) and is subject to opening days managed independently. We cannot guarantee access during your visit.

This tour is suitable for guests under 70 years old and in good physical condition.

The transfer to the island is by inflatable boat and can be quite bumpy.

Snorkeling is self-guided, with safety instructions provided by the skipper.
