The Vava'u Island Group is located in the northern part of Tonga, so it is necessary to get a further domestic flight after arriving in teh capital, Nuku'alofa (Tongatapu).

GETTING TO NUKU'ALOFA, the capital of Tonga:
There are regular flights Nuku'alofa with Air New Zealand, leaving from Auckland and Sydney. (www.airnz.co.nz)
Pacific Blue also fly twice a week from Auckland, Sydney and Brisbane. (www.flypacificblue.com)
Air Pacific fly to Nuku'alofa from Fiji a couple of times a week. (www.airpacific.com)

GETTING FROM NUKU'ALOFA TO VAVA'U
There are at least 2 flights daily to and from Vava'u (except Sundays) with the domestic carrier Chathams Pacific (www.chathamspacific.com). Flights can be booked online on their website.

The Vava'u Island Group consists of 47 islands. The main island, Vava'u Lahi, is by far the largest, with the airport a 15min drive from the main town, Neiafu.

There are plenty of restaurants, cafes, bars and shops in Neiafu, however there is no beach, and therefore the accommodations can be spread out a bit more to great locations on beaches.
