What a month it has been here in Tonga….we arrived on 7th April and it was just go go go….We ended up spending about two and a half weeks on Tongatapu trying to get through government processes and paperwork….It was very stressful and hard…however we succeeded! We not only retrieved our containers from the customs […]
Here we are peeps…onto the final countdown. A mere 15 days to go and Kitesurf Tonga will be leaving on a jet plane to immerse ourselves into our new adventure.

We have been looking for & collecting recyclable building materials for our beautiful island resort. We are going to be a sustainable accommodation so that we dont make too much of a mark on Uoleva, Ha’apai, the Kingdom of Tonga. It’s a really fabulous feeling looking at all the recycled wood that we have gathered!! […]
Kitesurfing around the South Pacific on numerous holidays led us to this dream of building Fanifo Lofa, a small resort on a beautiful island in the Ha’apai group in Tonga. We are moving to Tonga in March 2014 to start the build. There is much to be done before the big move and the build. […]
