Tonga is a small island nation in the southern Pacific Ocean, made up of 169 islands, of which only 36 are inhabited. The capital, Nukuʻalofa, is located on the main island of Tongatapu. With a population of around 100,000, Tonga is known for its warm hospitality and rich traditions. The official languages are Tongan and English. The climate is tropical, with a hot and humid summer and a warm, less humid winter, making these islands a popular destination for those seeking exotic natural beauty.

Tonga is the only remaining monarchy in Oceania, which gives it a special status in the region. The economy is primarily based on agriculture, fishing, and handicrafts, with remittances from Tongans working abroad also playing a significant role. Although tourism is not the main source of income, it is growing due to the beautiful beaches, coral reefs, and opportunities for diving. Visitors can experience the unique culture of the country by attending traditional ceremonies and festivals, where ancient customs and dances intertwine with modern influences.
