Daytrips to islands beyond the horizon
There are many small, uninhabited islands
waiting for you to satisfy your island dreams.
Fafá Island Resort offers a day trip in the
direction of the horizon, sometimes with
speed over the blue ocean and sometimes
cruising carefully through the coral gardens
and finally arriving on an island completely
for yourself.
Here you can swim, snorkel, collect seashells
or explore the island. For the hungry
castaway a picnic is waiting under a palm
tree and you can drink a freshly opened
coconut just harvested from the next coconut
tree. Late afternoon the boat returns to Fafá
Island, leaving you with memorable images
of an unforgettable island day.
Daytrips to the main island
As Fafá Island Resort is only 30 minutes by
boat away from the main island Tongatapu,
it is the ideal location to explore the main
island. You jump on our motor sailor, which
operates up to 4 times a day between Fafá
Island and Tongatapu.
On your way through the villages and plantations
you can experience the day-to-day
life. You may – with some luck – run into a
Tongan feast with traditional singing and
dancing.
A must are the Blow Holes, Captain Cook‘s
Landing Place, the colonies of flying foxes
(which you also can see on Fafá Island), the
Royal Palace, and for those interested in archaeology,
the Ha`amonga Trilithon and the
Royal Tombs in Langhi.
You may also have a rest on one of the
many lonely beaches.
On Sundays you may attend a church
service and listen to the beautiful voices of
the church choirs. If you book an organised
Sunday Tour with us, a Tongan family invites
you for lunch where you experience the traditional
Umu (food from the earth oven).
