passenger vessel to Tokelau

There is a regular cargo/ferry service that operates between Apia in Samoa and Tokelau. It goes about once a fortnight and the return fare is 280 New Zealand dollars for non-Tokelauns and 100 New Zealand Dollars for Tokelau people. It takes about 24 hours to travel to Fakaofo, about 28 hours to Nukunonu, and about 32 hours to Atafu. The office that handles this is Apia is just a few minutes walk south of the bus terminal in Apia. I can't remember the name of the road it's on. The visitor centre will have that information though. I have an e-mail address for someone in the ferry/cargo office. It is: tss@tesamoa.net (it might be tss@lesamoa.net. I can't read her writing properly). Also, check out the following website: http://tokelau.org.nz/Tokelau+Government/Boat+Schedule.html

Someone said that some sort of permit is needed to enter Tokelau, but I never did find anyone who knew anything about that.

There's also a weekly ferry between Samoa and American Samoa.
