Niuatoputapu

IN the far north of the Kingdom of Tonga is a small group of far-flung islands known as the Niuas. The main island is Niuatoputapu; though less-travelled than other parts of Tonga, this in fact adds to the feeling of a South Seas island paradise. The main towns are Hihifo, Vaipoa and Falehau.

Guest accommodation in Niuatoputapu comprises a number of local guesthouses. There is also the Palm Tree Island Resort, which offers beach fales and a restaurant on an otherwise uninhabited island just offshore from the main island. It is suitable for singles, couples or families.

Getting to Niuatoputapu used to be quite difficult, involving a very long inter-island ferry ride or reliance on often unkept flight schedules. However, more recently there is a good weekly service offered by Chathams Pacific, who now handle the domestic flights within the Kingdom.

Things to see and do on Niuatoputapu: Activities are mostly relaxed and laid-back, with beach lounging, swimming, snorkelling and kayaking. There are two high points on the island of Niuatoputapu with an inter-connecting ridge walk that offers outstanding views of the island and the dramatic Tafahi volcano (see top photo).
