Key fee: Oro Natural Pool local entrance

Confirm these fees before you book so your operator plan and day budget match what you will pay onsite.
Pay in XPF (CFP francs). Prices below are published reference figures, not live quotes. Key uncertainty: official listings for Oro Natural Pool report both 200 and 2,000 XPF; dive prices are likewise inconsistent across two Kunie listings. Request itemized current prices and local access permissions. No independently verified compulsory destination-wide marine-park dive tag or general tourist levy rate was found. Tourist taxes can be included in accommodation quotes, and site-specific tribal contributions may apply; do not invent a universal fee.
