Driving in Nuku'alofa gives you the flexibility to explore the city and its surrounds. Unlike the UK, driving is on the right side of the road. Speed limits are usually 50km/hr in towns and 70km/hr on open roads which is slower compared to UK's 30mph (48km/hr) and 60mph (97km/hr) respectively.

Unique Traffic Rules

Something different from the UK, Tonga has a rule restricting works involving heavy vehicles on Sundays. So, you can expect less traffic on Sundays making it a perfect day to drive around.

Recommended Car Class

A compact car is perfect for city exploration due to narrow and sometimes unpaved roads. If planning a beach adventure, an SUV is recommended for better traction on sandy surfaces.

Landmarks to Visit

Nuku'alofa is rich with cultural landmarks worthy of your visit. These include the Royal Palace, the Mala'ekula Royal Tombs, and the Tonga National Cultural Centre. Grab that steering wheel and let the journey begin!

Parking

Parking in Nuku'alofa is generally free, including around central markets and major landmarks. However, keep an eye out for restricted zones marked with a 'P' crossed out.

Beaches

Drive down for a sun-soaked day at one of the stunning beaches in Nuku'alofa. The Hufangalupe 'Natural Land Bridge' and Ha'atafu Beach are must-visits.

Local Climate

Nuku'alofa has a pleasant tropical climate. Unlike the UK's cold winters, temperatures in Nuku'alofa rarely fall below 20°C, even in their cooler months (May to October).

Seasonal Events

One unique event not to miss is the 'Heilala Festival' in July filled with music, dance, and traditional Tongan feasts, a lovely twist from the UK's summer festivals.

Currency

The currency in Tonga is the Tongan Pa'anga (TOP). Do consider getting some exchanged before your trip as not all places accept credit cards.
