# Massages in Tonga Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Tonga
becklesmate 13:04 UTC 06 Nov 2007 | Hi All! My boyfriend and I are leaving for our highly anticipated trip to Tonga next week - very exciting! I was suprised to see after reading the Lonely Planet from cover to cover that there is no mention of massages/day spas. Does anyone know where we can get a good, reasonably priced massage when we get to Tonga? Thanks Bec:) P.S Does anyone know if the whales are still swimming around Tonga, or have they moved on already?? |
raro 13:07 UTC 06 Nov 2007 | I thought I saw an ad for massage at the little tour office at the Dateline Hotel, just opposite the check-in desk. I think they had it in a room just past the little barber shop a few feet away, but I'm not sure if it is still on or not. | 1

jay_dee 08:46 UTC 14 Nov 2007 | I think the whales may have moved on - but you may see some passing on their return journey. There are places you can get a massage or beauty treatment - I saw it advertised at the Dateline - there are others too, but I'm not sure where. I'm sure you cuold find out when you get there. | 3
island_dreemer 07:47 UTC 29 Jan 2008 | Hi, Tonga does not have a day spa of anykind that I have come across. There are a few beauty salons however 'spas/day spas' No. Sorry to dissapoint, however if you day trip to Fafa Island they have a massage fale. For an iteresting massage head to the Blow Holes for a day out and there is usually a guy that gives massges while his wife and child sell handy crafts. I have to say that's one massage I will never forget! The whales have moved on. The season is normally July to November. Dont over look Eua as a whale watching destination. The Hideaway Resort has the best view for watching these magnificent creatures. Hope this helps. ID | 4
