With some great day trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to experience all that Royal Palace of Tonga, 25 miles away, has to offer. Interisland Ferry Terminal should be at the top of your list here. Captain Cook’s Landing Place and Tongan National Centre are fantastic attractions too. Locals are also likely to point you toward Flea Market, 25 miles away. If you can only find time for one thing here, let it be Royal Palace of Tonga. (But we’d also recommend Mapu’a ‘a Vaca Blowholes and Interisland Ferry Terminal.)
