Getting There & Around
How to Get to Tungua
Tungua is one of the Haʻapai islands. Most visitors reach Haʻapai by a domestic flight from Fuaʻamotu (Nukuʻalofa) to Lifuka/Salote Pilolevu Airport (Haʻapai); from Lifuka Island you must take a local boat or arranged island transfer to reach Tungua. Inter-island ferries and private boats operate between Lifuka (and other Haʻapai islands) and smaller outer islands-arrange boat pickup in advance with local operators on Lifuka.
