Maybe that is why the whales keep coming back each year! Charter a boat and take some time to explore the beautiful waterways and discover for yourself why Vava’u is one the world’s most favoured sailing destinations. Day trips are also available if you prefer. Swim inside the Swallows Cave and dive into Mariners Cave or discover the calm waterways by sea kayak.

For the fit and energetic, a climb to the top of Mt Talau is not to be missed. ...
