# Where to stay for Sat & Sun on Tongapatu? Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Tonga
h2ooh 17:42 UTC 04 Feb 2013 | I'm headed to Ha'aipi and arrive too late on Tongapatu to get there on Saturday. No trans on Sunday so I need to find a place where I can enjoy the weekend and maybe find some clear water to do some snorkeling. Any suggestions? |

It's quite remote however and you will have to pay for transportation to get there. With any luck, the same fellow might be able to take you on and island tour on Sunday if you are interested?
