Took the car all over the island, including to the northern-most point. Some of the roads are a bit potholed and ordinary, but the car handled it fine.

Really enjoyed New Caledonia, you need to brush up on your French as it really is the main language. The countryside and mountain areas are as beautiful as the beaches.

Driving on opposite side of road. GPS not up to date. Roads variable. Main north south road very good. 110 km in many places. Tail gating is very common. Cars very courteous to pedestrians.

Great place to visit and good roads. But be prepared for a major re-adjustment if you are used to driving on the left! (And learning something of French road signs is a good idea.)
