Escape Away

Journey with us on a South Pacific adventure in Tonga and spend your evenings on deserted beaches beneath waving palms bathed by warm South Pacific breezes.


Entering our 21st season of adventure tours in Tonga!

Snorkel crystalline waters, explore marine caves and comb white sand beaches. Camp on uninhabited islands. Savour freshly caught seafood, tropical fruits and pure Pacific air. Whale watch by sea kayak or on another of our day tours. Learn about the natural and cultural history of this Polynesian paradise. Visit traditional island villages and find out for yourself why Captain Cook named these the Friendly Islands.

Relaxation and Adventure

On our South Pacific sea kayaking and whale watching expeditions we strive to create a healthy balance between relaxation and adventure. The hallmarks of our adventures are cultural diversity; warm, clear, sheltered waters; superb snorkelling; friendly locals and professional guides; idyllic beach camps; a variety of activities; and fine food. The lush tropical islands of Vava'u and Ha'apai, with their fine white sand beaches, are separated by reefs or open water but are not great paddling distances apart. Thus, there is plenty of time to kayak the warm waters, snorkel amidst colourful coral and inside legendary marine caves, and observe the traditional way of life of the Tongan people.
