Hook in to Cook’s friendly islandsTonga

Navigate the turquoise waters of the Tonga archipelago on your own fully equipped yacht from Sunsail. Follow the breeze from uninhabited isles laced with pristine beaches to traditional villages, and learn why Captain Cook christened Tonga ‘the friendly islands’.

Take advantage of the year-round perfect climate and hit the water where you can laze in lagoons and clamber through waterside caves. Strap on your snorkelling gear and swim through underwater kelp forests and colourful coral reefs. See humpback whales, white dolphins and schools of tropical fish.
