Camping fuel in New CaledoniaCountry forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea | ||
Hi guys, Does anybody know what they carry down there? Propane/butane mix, white fuel, etc. Thanks a lot! | ||
Never needed any of those. | 1 | |
Get yourself a Whisperlite international. They burn unleaded gas. | 2 | |
Thanks for your input. As I am also heading to the Solomons and Vanuatu, where it is unlikely I will do my own cooking, I am now leaning towards just leaving all the cooking gear at home. | 3 | |
That's exactly what I did. Sounds like a good itinerary BTW - only PNG is missing! ;-) | 4 | |
PNG - I wish! I 'll wait til I have at least 2 full months. Sounds like such a fascinating place. | 5 | |
OP, it would be pointless taking camping or cooking gear to Solomon islands, as there is nowhere appropriate to camp with your own gear. Most places offer traditional houses for visitors. Many locally-used accommodation places have cooking facilities, others provide meals. | 6 | |
