The Kingdom of Tonga is a charming collection of 170 islands in the South Pacific Ocean. The main island of Tongatapu, with the capital town of Nuku'alofa, is a large flat coral island with pleasant coastal scenes and farming plantations. Offshore from Tongatapu are a collection of gorgeous tiny coral islands, mostly uninhabited but a few with tourist beach resorts. The Ha'apai Group to the north is a mix of volcanic cinder cones and coral islands with traditional fishing communities and gorgeous beaches but only a handful of places to stay. Further north is the most popular tourist destination of the Vavau Group, a collection of limestone islands and deep waterways making it the premier sailing destination in the South Pacific and a sanctuary for humpback whales which calf in the protected waters from July to October. Further north still, lying closer to Samoa, is the remote Niuas with its fantastic beaches and shimmering lagoons.
