Top Wildlife Sightings in Tonga
While diving in Tonga, sighting prehistoric sea turtles, elegant manta rays and 2-metre long wahoo fish is a common occurrence. Reef sharks stalk bait balls while larger pelagics such as whale sharks and humpback whales reward you with their presence. The sound of whale song fills your ears and images of banded sea snakes, eagle rays and stingrays soak into your memory.
Macro lovers use their well-trained eyes to unmask nudibranch camouflaged amongst hard and soft corals. While the ongoing search for a rare orangutan crab within the comfort of a bubble coral will leave you in deep anticipation for the next dive. Whether you find what you are looking for or not, there will always be a kaleidoscope of colour, as countless reef fish surround you.
