Tonga is one of the few places in the world where you are actually allowed to swim with whales. Although we had seen many Humpbacks surface close to our boatwhile sailing, it proved impossible for one of us to jump in while the other handled the boat. Either the wave conditions were too rough or we ...

Tonga, the unexpected Oasis. When we set off this season, Tonga was on the list but it was heavily overshadowed by the likes of French Polynesia, Marquesas and the Cook Islands. The focus was on places like Bora Bora, Mo'orea and Aitutaki. So let me tell you, we wer...
We saved the best of Tonga's Ha'apai Group for last as we were the only humans around to witness a newborn humpback calf being helped to the surface by it's mother in order to take it's first breaths. This was an amazing instance of being in the right place at the right time, an...
Just a quick story about Michael's message in a bottle he released on his birthday at a remote volcano in the Ha'apai Island group, Tonga.
Pretty crazy that it only took 3 months for it to wash up on a beach in a neighbouring country.

Our Tongan Haapai Group adventure continues as we sail to two new islands: Uoleva and Tatafa. We get to do a bit of racing, a bit of fishing and a bit of exploring. Pretty much everything you want to do in the South Pacific!
Along the way we learn up close and personal that nature is never at res...
The time had come to explore a new part of Tonga: the Ha'apai Group. It's about a 60 mile sail to get there and along the way we got to encounter those magnificiant reason we came back to Tonga: humpback whales!
We got to experience several 'heat runs' which is where male humpb...
With Starry Horizons back on the mend, we set out to explore a place of the Vava'u Group of Tonga we had never been before: Kenutu Island. This is one of those absolutely picturesque South Pacific Islands. It's surrounded by a reef, uninhabited with a gorgeous beach, palm trees everywher...
After a long awaited return to Starry Horizons in Tonga, we immediately started re-commissioning her and discovered a serious problem. The anodes on our saildrives had completely disappeared and the saildrives had started corroding!
This was something that required immediate fixing and fortunately...

It's always the last day of a passage when things go wrong! We set sail from New Zealand to head back up to Tonga for another South Pacific cruising season. The passage was a bit of a tricky one with strong winds, then light winds and then shifting strong winds. We managed to take it all in...
