Intro

Backpacking or travelling in Tonga?

  • Tonga, known as the "Kingdom of the Islands", is an archipelago of 169 islands in the Pacific Ocean. Only 36 of them are inhabited, making it a paradise of untouched nature, turquoise waters and authentic Polynesian culture. The country also has no mass tourism, so a truly unique experience.
  • Activities: whale watching in Vava'u; diving at Haʻapai; exploring Eua Island; relaxing on Pangaimotu; traditional partying at a Fiafia Night; admire the Mapu'a 'a Vaea blowholes; discover Anahulu Cave; explore the royal capital Nuku'alofa; sail along remote islands; visit local markets.
  • Animals: humpback whales, manatees, giant turtles, colourful reef fish, coconut crabs, Tonga fruit bat, sharks, parrotfish, Tonga megapode. Food spotting: ota ika, lupulu, kapisi pulu, Tongan lobster, taro chips, sipi, poi, fresh coconuts, faikakai.

Studying in Tonga?

  • The study options in Tonga are very limited. You can choose from studies in the field of education, social sciences, accounting and tourism.
  • Study city: Nuku’alofa.
  • Language: English and Tongan.

Internships in Tonga?

  • There are internships possible in the field of technology, research (marine, health care etc.), tourism and agriculture.
  • Competencies: working in small-scale isolated communities, practical knowledge of nature conservation, intercultural communication, creativity.

Volunteering in Tonga?

  • There are several options for volunteering. For example, there are options in agriculture, education, health care, climate change, tourism, nature conservation and economic development.

Working in Tonga?

  • In Tonga, you can find work in the tourism industry, for example as a diving instructor or guide, at NGOs or research centers in the field of nature conservation, in agriculture and in education.

Working as a digital nomad in Tonga?

  • Tonga can be an interesting destination for digital nomads because of the beautiful beaches, friendly locals and relatively affordable costs, but the internet and facilities leave much to be desired.
  • Favorite locations: resorts in Vava’u and Tongatapu with reasonable WiFi connections.

Living in Tonga?

  • Tonga is a destination for adventurers, nature lovers and anyone who wants to take a break from the modern world. Life here is about simplicity, connectedness and the pure beauty of nature.
  • Education: there are a limited number of international schools.
  • Expat community: there is a reasonably large expat community.
  • Safety: it is a safe country, except for the risks of cyclones and tsunamis.
  • Be aware: employment opportunities are limited, life can be isolated and healthcare is limited.
  • Health insurance: care is limited and for more serious treatments you have to evacuate abroad. So make sure you have your own good health insurance.

Travel in Tonga?

  • The 177-island kingdom of Tonga in the Pacific Ocean is an archipelago where a laid-back culture dominates the islands. The islands, surrounded by wide open seas, offer unparalleled opportunities for snorkeling, diving, kayaking, sailing, or enjoying beautiful beaches. It is unpolished and untouched by tourism. The nearest neighboring island is Fiji.

Activities abroad: home page

From language courses to gap year abroad, from work experience to volunteering abroad, from paid work to internship abroad, from mountaineering to diving and from backpacking to travel around the world

    What social activities can you do abroad?

    • Opportunities are found in the areas of helping, learning or studying. You can get involved to volunteer in a social project at a school in Africa, Asia or Latin America. You can get involved in nature, in a project with animals or cleaning the sea or beaches. Those who want to learn more can choose for example a language course in Latin America, Spain or South Africa.

    What work related activities can you do abroad?

    • If you want to gain work experience, and/or also earn money, go and work abroad. You can combine backpacking in Australia with temporary work. You can work on campsites in Europe or bush camps in Africa. You can pretty much go all over the world to work in the hospitality industry, hotels and hostels, in the healthcare sector or for example at a diving school.

    What sports activities to do abroad?

    • Have you ever thought of mountain biking, rafting (going down a wild river on a raft or rubber dinghy, climbing or canoeing), survival (which involves building rafts, climbing or canoeing), abseiling (descending a rock face while secured to ropes), zip-lining (whizzing down a cable), canyoning (starting at the top of a river and then climbing, swimming, diving down the bed) or caving (scrambling, wriggling and crawling through caves and crevices)?
    • Maybe you feel more comfortable on a bodyboard (on a half-wave surfboard, you surf the high waves lying down-with flippers), on a hang glider or while paragliding (with a parachute you float down a mountain or dune), hydrospeeding (on a bodyboard with flippers and a wetsuit on you go down a wild river via rapids) or Tiefschneeskiing (racing down through powder snow)?
