Tonga

Cruise to Tonga & the South Pacific

All hail the king of the tropics; Tonga! This string of 170-odd islands is the last kingdom in the South Pacific. With tight holds to the past, it’s fiercely loyal to culture, traditions and monarchy. The Tongans are decidedly unhurried the locals are well and truly on island time. And who can blame them? The ocean that surrounds Tonga is one of its greatest attractions, teeming with sea life and bright corals. It’s considered one of the best spots in the world to spot big, beautiful whales. Cruise to Tonga with P&O to swim next to giant humpbacks, immerse yourself in ancient culture, or simply contemplate life at a slower pace. In just a short time you’ll see why it was formerly called The Friendly Islands.
