Zone BN ('baie de Nunue') in arrêté 2442 CM: a six-point polygon around 16°30.03'–16°30.12'S, 151°45.13'–151°45.31'W, for vessels under 20 m; 2025 DPAM map: 7 BBMS places. Coordinate is the polygon centroid. Sits just south of the former MaiKai marina and the Total fuel dock, and just north of Vaitape's ferry quay and the cruise-ship anchorage, so expect wakes from ferries, tenders and water taxis. Fees: Noonsite (page updated June 2026) gives 6,000 XPF for the first day, or 4,000 XPF per day if you stay two days or more; an August 2024 cruiser report gives a flat 4,000 XPF per night with no volume discount; a May 2025 logbook (59 North) puts it at about US$30 per night. One fee covers any BBMS ball in any field and you can move between fields. Book ahead on WhatsApp +689 89 44 08 88, VHF 9, or dockmaster.bbms@gmail.com, stating crew, boat name and which field you want; then pick up a free ball and the BBMS launch comes by to take payment (cash in XPF) and issue a receipt. Trash is collected from your boat two to three times a week (not Sundays). Balls are reported insured and inspected every six months, but dive your mooring and stay aboard in strong winds. 2025-26 reports describe slow WhatsApp confirmations and occasional confrontational behavior from the attendant; keep your booking messages.
