Vivre en Nouvelle-Calédonie en famille?

This discussion is in French, the community’s main language.
Original post
Bonjour, je m'appelle Sarah, ma petite famille et moi souhaiterions partir pour la Nouvelle Calédonie, mais comme vous vous en doutez, les questions sont nombreuses et les craintes vivaces.J'ai parcouru le site mais je ne trouve pas toutes les réponces ou parfois les discussions sont très anciennes.
Tout d'abord, mon mari est chef de chantier dans les travaux publics, j'ai cru comprendre qu'il y avait du travail, avez vous une idée des salaires?
Nous avons deux enfants, la dernière a 20 mois, mons fils rentre au cp, la rentrée scolaire est en Février, du coup il perd une année, vous savez comment ça se passe?
Quant à moi, je suis commerçante, j'ai une boutique de maillots de bain dans le sud de la France, J'aimerais bien ouvrir le même type de commerce à Nouméa, j'ai lu que les conditions étaient différentes, on paye moins cher d'impôts et de charges pour l'emploi de personnel, mais si vous connaîssez un site autre que la chambre de commerces pour me renseigner se serait sympa.
De plus que pensez-vous du nouveau complexe de l'Anse Vata? ça bouge un peu ou les gens consomment plutôt dans les boutiques du centre ville? Je sais que ça fait beaucoup de questions d'un coup mais c'est une décision tellement importante de tout quitter pour le bout du monde.
De plus je m'Y prend peut être un peu tôt car on ne pense pas partir avant une bonne année.
Merci d'avance pour toute l'aide que vous pourrez nous apporter dans notre projet, et à très bientôt.
Bonjour
Concernant le travail, il vous faut un contrat de travail ( de préférence ) avant de quitter la france. L'emploi en NC est réservé en priorité aux natifs de NC à diplome ou à compétence égale. Même si cette règle est contournable, il vaut mieux être prudent.
Concernant l'année scolaire, et bien oui, il faut parfois faire des sacrifices pour gagner le soit disant paradis. C'est plutot 6 mois de " perdus " plutot qu'1 an.
Pour les boutiques, il faut avoir en tête que tout existe déjà en NC, les emplacements sont chers, les charges sociales sont ( sauf erreur de ma part ) d'au moins 42% d'un salaire.
Pour finir, ne revez pas trop, la NC est un paradis pour les yeux, pour le reste c'est comme en france, il y des abrutis, des socialistes et des gens avides de pouvoir...

Bonjour,
Le complexe de l'Anse-Vata est très bien situé mais les loyers des boutiques sont hyper-chères... Beaucoup de commerces ont mis la clé sous la porte et des boutiques restent vides depuis la fin des travaux.
Sidonya
Bonjour à tout deux, tout d'abord, merci de prendre la peine de me repondre.
J'ai déjà constaté que les loyers étaient hors de prix, mais pas vraiment plus que dans ma région, je paye 18000 euros pour 6 mois d'ouverture que je passe à travailler 12 heures par jour 7j/7, je ne vois quasiment pas mon mari et mes enfants de toutes les vacances. Ce qu'on attend de la Nouvelle Calédonie, c'est pas d'arriver au paradis, ni même de gagner des fortunes, mais simplement de prendre le temps de vivre, de partager une expérience nouvelle et enrichissante ensemble, profiter de la nature, on a conscience que la vie y est très chère, mais on part pas avec l'idée de vivre là-bas comme on vit ici. Tant pis pour le fromage et les yaourts, on adore le poisson, on est pas difficiles de toute façon. Le plus dur c'est vraiment l'éloignement famillial, mes enfants sont super attachés à leurs grand-mères, et une fois sur place, sans dire de gagner beaucoup d'argent, il faut en avoir suffisemment pour rentrer en cas de problème.
On ne part pas en terrain conqui, loin de là, et je me doute bien qu'il y a tout ce qu'il faut en terme de magasins, j'éspère juste que comme ici, même si ouvrir un magasin reste difficile et risqué, il reste encore un peu de place pour ceux qui savent et qui veulent travailler.
Dis-moi Sidonya, est-ce que tu penses que le complexe est ammené à se développer ou que les gens sont vraiment conditionnés à faire les boutiques dans le centre ville? et est-ce que tu connais la boutique Hip up à l'Anse Vata? si oui qu'est-ce que tu en pense?
Merci encore à vous et j'éspère à bientôt.
Bonjour,
Je rentre de voyage....
Le complexe de l'anse vata est super mais c'est le prix du loyer des locaux commerciaux qui freinent l'installation d'un nouveau commerce.
A moins d'avoir pas mal de liquidités pour démarrer et se faire connaître de la clientèle locale.
La boutique dont tu parles est sympa mais ce n'est pas là où je vais m'habiller, particulièrement à cause des prix des articles...
Je te joins 2 photos du complexe qui se trouve en face de la plage.
Sidonya
Salut, j'éspère que ton voyage c'est bien passé.
Merci beaucoup pour les photos de l'anse vata, c'est vrai que je m'y intêrresse pas
mal parceque la marque principale avec laquelle je bosse est déjà en place sur le centre ville, dans la boutique ultra violet. Enfin, d'ici l'année prochaine les prix auront peut être baissés, l'espoir fait vivre. De toute façon, on va surement venir passer le mois de Février en Nouvelle Calédonie, juste histoire d'être vraiment sur de notre choix.J'aurais quand même une autre question, tout le monde sur le forum parle des prix exhorbitants nottamment dans l'immobilier, j'ai vu sur le net qu'effectivement les loyers étaient très cher mais à l'achat on trouve quand même pas mal de maisons pour moins de 300 000 euros, ce qui est tout à fait impossible dans le sud de la France, est-ce qu'il y a un Hic? quartiers isolés ou vraiment très loin de tout?
A bientôt SIDONYA.
Les maisons individuelles à 300 000 € sont certainement situées en dehors de Nouméa. Le principal inconvénient sera le temps passé tous les matins et soirs dans la circulation pour entrer ou sortir de la ville. Une fois chez toi, tu n'as plus envie de sortir faire un restau ou aller au ciné.
Les activités extra-scolaires seront plus délicates à gérer aussi. Ici, chaque foyer a 2 voitures ou plus si les enfants sont encore là... Alors imagines les véhicules que ça fait...
Sidonya
bonjour Sidonya,
ceci explique cela, le paradis n'étant pas de ce monde, je suppose qu'il faut savoir faire des concéssions. Merci d'avoir répondu à mes questions, pour le moment, je bosse beaucoup, du coup j'ai plus vraiment le temps de naviguer sur internet, mais si ça ne te dérange pas, je te recontacterais si j'ai d'autres questions.
De ton côté, n'hésite pas si tu as besoin de quelque chose, bien que je ne pense pas que tu ai prévu de venir passer tes vacances dans le sud de la France, tu as déjà ta dose de soleil!
merci encore et j'éspère à très bientôt.
Salut
Si c'est un point de vu objectif, ce serait bien d'en faire profiter tout le monde, et si ça peut éviter à d'autres de faire une conn..., c'est aussi le but du forum.

Je ne crois pas que partager ses expériences soit vraiment utile. Chacune étant trop personnelle et sous tendue par beaucoup trop d'elements subjectifs pour en faire des éléments tangibles de décision pour des individus différents les uins des autres. Il s'agit plutôt d'exposer des faits débarrassés de tout fantasme.
J'ai une mauvaise expérience de ce que les gens perçoivent quand je parle de la calédonie et de sa supercherie. D'ailleurs une des premieres choses qu'on te dit (au cours d'une soirée "zoreils" par exemple, ou au sortir d'une plongée géniaaaale trop cooool) quand tu arrives c'est que tu dois la fermer, pas poser de question, pas essayer de comprendre et profiter benoîtement du jet ski, du bateau et de ton fric etc...
Justement, moi c'est ce genre d'expérience que j'aimerais "lire" sur le forum. Bien souvent ceux qui ont été déçu de la NC rentrent en france et n' osent en parler.
comme je l'ai précisé dans un message précédent, on recherche pas le paradis.
J'attend pas de ce forum qu'on me conseille de partir ou pas, c'est une décision qui nous appartient, et il est évident que là où certaines personnes seront enchantées de leur expatriation d'autes auront vécu une très mauvaise expérience.Ce qui m'intêresse en revanche c'est de partager vos expériences bonnes ou mauvaises afin de préparer au mieux mon expatriation si on se décide à sauter le pas.
Tu peux me dire pourquoi tu semble si négatif sur la Nouvelle Calédonie et ce qui a marché ou pas pour toi là bas. Et encore une fois merci de prendre la peine de me répondre.

Hi everyone,
My name is Deborah, I’m French. I’m married and have two children. I’m a clinical psychologist specializing in psychotraumatology, and I’m also pursuing medical studies.
For some time now, I’ve been seriously considering moving to the United States. My long-term goal is to practice medicine in the U.S., with a particular interest in forensic pathology. I know the journey is demanding (USMLE, residency, fellowship, etc.), but I’m ready to commit to several years of hard work.
For now, I’m focused on building this project thoughtfully. I want to improve my English, better understand the American system, and connect with people who’ve already gone through this process or are living in the U.S.
I have a few questions:
- Are there any doctors or international students here who’ve successfully matched into a U.S. residency? - When did you start preparing for the USMLE? - What advice would you give to someone still in medical school? - Which states would you recommend for a future career in forensic pathology, with a good quality of life and good schools for kids? - Is it better to do an observership or a research fellowship before applying for residency? - What are, in your opinion, the pitfalls to avoid when planning such a project?
Thank you so much to everyone who takes the time to respond. I’d really appreciate any advice or experiences you can share!

Hi everyone, my son’s school is offering him a one-month Erasmus trip to Ireland, but he has to find a junior cycle school that will accept him and a host family on his own. Honestly, we’re struggling—we’ve contacted two schools and haven’t heard back! If you have any leads...

Hi there,
I’m considering moving to Miami to live and work for a few years.
If anyone knows what the administrative formalities are—both for getting a work permit and for the steps and reputable organizations to contact (since I imagine there are scammers in this space) when buying a studio in Miami or Miami Beach—I’d love any info you can share!
Have a great day

Hi there. I’m planning to move to Luxembourg around December 2025 or January 2026. I’ll be looking for a job and settling in. My question is: is it too complicated to find housing? Is the job market more advantageous and easier than in France? I’m open to any information that could help me.
Thanks in advance for your advice.
Hi everyone,
I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences about marrying a Cuban and moving to Cuba (not the other way around!). Yes, some of us actually *want* to stay on the island! Is it possible to work there without too much hassle, or is it really complicated?
Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Bangkok for a 5-month internship, and I’m wondering about the budget because I’ve read all sorts of things—so I decided to post here to get answers tailored to my situation! :D I found housing that costs me 7,000 baht (I know it’s a bit pricey, but it’s super convenient...), which works out to about 160 € all-inclusive. So, I was wondering if it’s realistic to live on 500 or 600 € per month, and if so, under what conditions? Is that enough, considering I’ll be working 40 hours a week?
Thanks in advance for your replies—I hope they’ll reassure me!

Hi everyone,
WEP offers loads of different projects, including one I really like: helping and volunteering on a farm, particularly in South America (Peru or Argentina).
I’d love to know if anyone has tried this project or knows someone who has... or has done something similar? I’d like to get some feedback before diving into the adventure.
If so, could you share your thoughts on the project, any tips, etc.?
Thanks to anyone who replies!

Hi there,
Our departure time is getting closer (we have less than 2 years left—it’s both a long time and so short!). To start preparing seriously, we’ll need quite a bit of info. If anyone knows the rates charged by movers for a crate to French Polynesia, or what pitfalls to avoid (I know you can get quotes directly from movers, but I’d love insights from actual customers😉).
Are there any special requirements before leaving France (aside from taxes...)?
Thanks to everyone for your help—every bit of info is useful. We’re aiming for a departure around 06/2010 (just need to save up a little more...). Thanks again!

Hi, I’m a self-employed physiotherapist in France, and as my wife (a nurse) and I look into working abroad in about two years, I’ve been offered an equivalence to become a respiratory physiotherapist in Switzerland. Actually, I’m currently doing a postgraduate diploma in pediatric respiratory physiotherapy and want to specialize in that area. Anyway, that’s not the main point—could anyone explain the pros and cons of doing this job in Switzerland? Based on the paperwork I’ve received, the equivalence seems purely administrative or almost... What about working conditions, quality of life, salaries, etc.?
Thanks for your replies. PS: Same question for my wife, a nurse, regarding her integration.
Thanks, Nicolas and Bérengère

Hi everyone!
I’m looking for information about jobs in early childhood in New Caledonia. I’m currently a childminder in a MAM (multi-accueil) and I’ve also worked for about 6 years in several daycare centers as a childcare assistant. In the summer of 2026, my husband is being transferred to New Caledonia. We’ll be living near Nouméa. Do you know if the early childhood sector is a good field for jobs there? Can’t wait to discover this island! Right now, we’re in the middle of all the administrative paperwork for our 3 kids, finding housing, bringing our cat to the territory, and so on! Thanks for your feedback!!

I’d love to go to Japan to travel, and if things go well, work there too. Has anyone tried finding a job there? Is it even possible without speaking Japanese? I’m thinking of starting out in restaurants (dishwashing or serving) and then moving into my field, IT.

Hi everyone!
I’d like to move to Spain, specifically to Málaga. To do that, I’d like to know if I’ll need any official documents from France to work there, or anything like that... I’d also love to hear from people who’ve moved to Spain for work—do Spaniards like the French? Is it hard to fit in? What are the salary ranges for a ready-to-wear salesperson? And is it easy to find housing?
Thanks! 🙂

Hi everyone! 👨🏾🤝👨🏻
My partner and I currently live in Antibes—we’re both freelancers working remotely. We’re thinking about potentially moving to Italy.
We’d like to settle near the French border, between Ventimiglia and San Remo (this is important because we need access to Nice Airport twice a month). ✈️
I’d love to hear about life in this region! We’re looking for a quiet spot close to the sea. Any recommendations? As for the paperwork, is it difficult to get everything official? Is finding housing tough in this area? What kind of guarantees are usually required? If any kind soul could shed some light on this, we’d really appreciate it! 🥺🏻
Thanks so much for your help and advice! ☺️

Hi everyone,
I’d like to get some information about my eligibility for the DV Lottery.
About my background: • I earned a *Bac Pro* through VAE (*Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience*), issued by the *Éducation nationale*. • I also have a professional certification as a *Conseiller en Insertion* (Employment Counselor), issued by the Ministry of Labor. • Altogether, this adds up to a *Bac+2* level.
I’d like to know if this level qualifies me to apply for the DV Lottery.
Regarding my work experience: • I work as an *Employment Counselor*. • I checked on O*Net Online for the classification: Job Zone 4, SVP Range: 7.0 – <8.0. • I only have one year of experience, but I handle similar tasks in business creation.
So my question is: can I apply for the DV Lottery despite my relatively short experience, given that my job falls under Job Zone 4?
Thanks in advance for your answers and advice! !

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for info on villages around Aix, like Fuveau, Bouc-Bel-Air, or even Éguilles and Venelles? We’re a couple with a child living in the Paris region, and I’ll be relocating to Aix-en-Provence in spring 2026. We’d love to swap our apartment for a house with a pool within 20-30 minutes max of central Aix, with a budget of around 650k €.
In terms of climate and geography, I’ve read that Aix is in a basin where it can get really hot. What about the surrounding villages that are a bit more elevated, like Venelles? Is it just as stifling?
For a family, which area would you recommend?

Starting this spring, we want to settle near Aix-en-Provence. We're tired of living in the mountains with all the snow—we really need some sunshine and a fresh start. Is it hard to find a house to rent there? What about prices? If you have any great tips or useful info about the area, we’d love to hear it. I work in education and want to do prevention work in Marseille or Aix—are there jobs in the social sector?
Anyway, we need tons of info, but we’re sure we’re going to take the leap—no hesitation, adventure is adventure!!! Thanks for your help and any experiences you can share.

Hi,
I’m an osteopath and I’d like to set up and open an osteopathy practice in Thailand. I don’t have a precise location in mind yet, but I’m thinking maybe Hua Hin. I saw there’s an osteopath based in Phuket, so I wrote to him for some info, but he still hasn’t replied🤪!
So I’m reaching out to people who live there or know the country well: I’d like to know what the best ways are to advertise and get known in Thailand. Are there any local classifieds newspapers? First, I’d like to practice from my apartment. Is that allowed in Thailand? Ideally, I’d like to work part-time in a private hospital as an osteopath. I’m thinking that in Thailand, the medical field is much more open than in Europe!!! Has anyone seen an osteopath or chiropractor working in a Thai hospital? Do you know the price of a consultation?
Any info you can share will be super helpful! Thanks in advance[;)!!!]

Hello everyone,
We’re a small family from the south of France, with a 2-year-old little boy, and we’re dreaming of starting a new adventure abroad by opening our own business. For now, we haven’t chosen a specific destination yet.
We mainly speak French, with a basic level of Spanish and English, and we’re ready to improve these two languages if needed. We’re looking for a multicultural, safe country with quality healthcare and good schools accessible for our son. We’d also love a pleasant place with a mild climate where life is good.
Our idea is to travel to different countries to explore, compare, and refine our project. We’d be really happy to read your tips, experiences, or anecdotes if you’ve already undertaken a similar project or if you know key points to anticipate.
Thanks in advance for your shares and help—it would really help us move forward with our project! 😄
Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Dublin as an au pair in a few weeks.
I’m looking for a reputable language school. It’s so hard to choose! Has anyone already done a language stay in Dublin? Any tips? Thanks so much! :)
Hi everyone, so I’m planning to go study at a community college in the U.S., but the only snag is which one—there are so many options over there! I’ve heard about one in California, Diablo Valley College, and another in Florida, Valencia College. I know both states are super attractive for tourism, but my main criteria are teaching quality and price. I’m open to any advice, comments, or suggestions—thanks in advance! The start of the semester is coming up, and I’m a little nervous...
READY, SET...... GO...... TO YOUR KEYBOARDS!!!!!!!! lol

Hi! I’m looking for an apartment in Malaga from September (2025) until January for my Erasmus exchange, but I’m not finding much, and it seems like there are a lot of scams. Does anyone have any leads or tips? Thanks!^^
