Tonga does not have a highly developed infrastructure for water activities and you won't find any commercial water sports like para-sailing, water skiing or jet boats here, which is great. However, the country is blessed with some of the best waters in the South Pacific for sailing, game fishing and whale watching and there are some excellent coral reefs for snorkelling and scuba diving.

The Vavau Group in the north of Tonga is considered to be the best region for Sailing in the South Pacific with deep channels and the Neiafu Harbour iwith its ideal anchorage and plenty of yacht charters. The same waters are also ideal for Game Fishing.



There are two great regions for Kayaking in Tonga. The myriad of islands in the Vavau Group offer calm waters and great exploring and the Haapai Group further south has good small island hopping potential, visiting secluded beaches along the way.

Scuba Diving is not extensive compared to some of its South Pacific neighbours but there are some great dive sites around the tiny islands off Tongatapu and in the Ha'apai Group, with some great cave diving in Vavau.

Hiking trails are limited as the islands lack mountain ranges but you will find some pleasant walks along the coastlines of Ha'apai and Vavau the later with some challenging hills to climb, and for avid hikers, Eua Island has some great trails along cliffs and into tropical rain forest.
