Ha'apai, Tonga

Ha'apai

The unspoiled paradise of the Kingdom of Tonga is clearly Ha’apai, who’s low coral islands, coconut palm dusted white sand beaches and vibrant reefs transport you back in time. There is a deep sense of pride and honour in the culture here that you will struggle to find in any of the other island groups, and that deep connection to their traditions gives the people of the 62 Ha’apai islands an evergreen smile – it’s no wonder they are known as the friendliest people in the Kingdom!

In this corner of the Pacific you will not find the distractions of shops or traffic, but rather a place of peace and relaxation. No matter how much stress you carry, you will find release once you succumb to the ways of Ha’apai. If you’re drawn to the sea then the sandy beaches, kite surfing, and exceptional diving here will bring you back to your true self in no time. Warming Tradewinds and looming active and dormant volcanoes provide a sense of escape, like a scene from a movie like Mutiny on the Bounty – after all, it was here in the waters of the Ha’apai group that Fletcher Christian and his men finally seized command of the HMS Bounty from Captain William Bligh. Ha’apai is the idyllic island dream of true adventurers, and those who have spent time here on the finest sand beaches in Tonga are often heartbroken to leave and eager to return.

If Ha’apai sounds like the perfect spot for you then call us on 1800 800 722, or visit our Tonga Holiday Deals page.
