New Caledonia Shopping: 5 reviews and 7 photos
Souvenir shops in Noumea usually sell stuff mass-produced in Asia or Fiji.
The Kanaks do produce some interesting items themselves, but telling it apart from the copies made elsewhere can be a challenge.
As usual, the best way to do it is to buy at the source. The honesty stalls found along the main roads of North-East Grande Terre often sell local crafts for very reasonable prices.
Expect to find soap-stone and woodcarvings, and basketware.
