Fort Teremba is a former fort and a prison located near Moindou in New Caledonia which came to be set up to house prisoners and the supervisory staff. The prisoners were brought to build road network Canala-Bourail-Boulouparis. It overlooks Teremba Bay (Uarai Bay) opposite the mouth of the La Foa River 124 kilometres north of Noumea.The fort was further strengthened following the revolt by Kanak people against the French Colonial rule in 1878 when they had besieged the prison.
