Campervans in New cal? Camping on Grand Terre

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / New Caledonia

HI
Anybody used a campervan in New caledonia - or do they even exist at decent rates? ANy advice would be great. Also, if we were unable to get a campervan but used a normal small car is it easy to find camp ground anywhere north of Noumea and what sort of gear would we need to take. At this stage it looks as tho we will only have sleeping bags.
Thanks

Don´t recall seeing any campervans there.
There are many campgrounds, especially in the North-East, but don´t expect AU/NZ style "holiday parks", just grassy sites for tents, bathrooms and maybe a basic kitchen.
You definitely need your own tent.
