Regatta Vava’u

Plans for the second annual Regatta Vava’u & Festival have been unveiled.

To be staged 22-28SEP10, the seven day festival of sailing will feature
racing events, a food, craft and cultural fair, the best Full Moon Party in the South Pacific, engaging children’s activities, and opportunities to win prizes donated by a multitude of local and international businesses.

Yachts pre-registering and arriving in advance of the regatta week will have the opportunity to take part in the island scavenger hunt. Regatta Vava’u participants will experience firsthand the wonders of the area’s eco-system and the warmth of the Tongan people. Regatta goers will not be the only ones flocking to Vava’u’s tropical waters in September. They will share the waterways and harbours with
humpback whales, which migrate to the islands to breed from June through November, offering a rare and close-up viewing opportunity.

Vava’u’s reefs, teeming with vibrant fish, make for world-class snorkeling and the dramatic dives are a scuba diver’s dream. Vava’u also offers plenty of interest off the water.

Yachties can register for free and participants can view the Regatta’s entire schedule of events at:
