Many tourists who have visited Noumea will remember the trip to Plum beach a few miles [?]utside the town, and the ice-cold spring that gushes out of the mountain hight up the flank [?]f Mt. Dore. Recently the local Syndicat d'Iniative, which is the local tourist organisation, [?]ad this retaining wall built above the spring. A considerable amount of other work has [?]een done-and some noumea residents wish the project had gone even further and a swimming pool built. The volume of water is sufficient for this. From the spring there is a sweeping [?]iew down to the sea coast.
