Our longest expedition, the Ha'apai Classic remains our flagship adventure tour in this very special Conservation Area. Weather and sea conditions permitting, we paddle the length of the Lifuka Archipelago. Our base camp at the southernmost uninhabited island of Uanukuhahake is about as remote as one can get in Tonga! Even the ubiquitous coconut tree struggles to survive in this wild, windswept environment. Though nothing stops the nesting green turtle's annual return. Includes 3 nights' accommodation pre-/post-kayak tour.

During the 4 days of kayaking we visit those islands in the middle of the Vava'u Island Group. We don't have time to paddle to the far eastern and western islands as we do on our longer trips. However, we still have endless snorkelling opportunities and experience the Tongan culture (village visits and a feast) as well as an uninhabited island. Includes 2 nights' accommodation pre/post kayak tour.
