EXTRAS - HIGH SEASON: 20 JUNE - 23 OCTOBER

The diving in Vava'u is spectacular. The waters are crystal clear, with visibility averaging 30m, and the water is warm all year round. There is an incredible variety of diving in this small group of magnificent islands. See hard corals that truly are untouched, and soft coral gardens in a myriad of colours, plus one of the best Gorgonia fan dives in the South Pacific. There are unique caves, spectacular underwater archways, and the 122m wreck of the Clan McWilliam which sank over 50 years ago, sitting upright and still intact.

Dive Vava'u, Beluga Diving and Dolphin Pacific Diving are all experienced operators with shops located in the local township of Neiafu. They offer pick and drop off from the jetty at "The Tongan".

The Tongan Beach Resort is in the eviable position of being able to offer whale watching tours to our guests. We are on the seasonal migration path of the Humpback whale and these magnificent mammals can often be seen with their young. There are few things in this world that can rival swimming with whales (at your own risk), and seeing their beauty and scale in the crystal clear waters of the Pacific.

Experience the thrills of a lifetime in a South Pacific tropical fishing paradise. VavaÕu offers a great variety of fishing challenges to both experienced and novice anglers. Pacific Blue, Black and Striped Marlin, Yellow Fin and Dogtooth Tuna, Mahimahi, Wahoo and Giant Trevally. Light tackle (8kg, 10kg) and big game gear (15kg, 24kg, 37kg) available.

Dora Malia, Hakula, Kiwi Magic and Target One all offer full or share bookings. All fishing gear and bait supplied. If you are specialising in light tackle, you may wish to bring your own gear, jigs and lures.

Areas fished include circumnavigation of Vava'u, NW side of Vava'u, Hunga Island and Hunga Banks where the bottom drops from 40m to 1000m in less than a quarter of a mile. You may even see the migrating Humpback whales at close range.

Other activities include:
• Snorkelling - the beach is safe for swimming and snorkelling at any tide. The best snorkelling is at the entrance of the resort. Snorkelling gear is complimentary to house guests and is available from the office.
