Peak season
Tonga’s peak tourist season corresponds with its long ‘dry’ season between May and November, when temperatures are slightly cooler and there is less chance of rain. The majority of visitors arrive between July and September to escape the winter cold in Australia and New Zealand, and this also coincides with Tonga’s whale watching season when these magnificent creatures can be seen migrating through the islands. If you plan to visit during this period, expect higher accommodation rates and flight ticket prices.
Off season
Tonga’s ‘wet’ season stretches from late-November to the start of May, with higher temperatures and humidity expected, together with regular downpours. It is more pronounced in the northern islands which lie closer to the Equator, and the heaviest rainfall usually occurs in February and March. This is also cyclone season in Tonga, and while storms are usually short-lived, they can be intense. If you decide to visit in the ‘wet’ season, the weather may not be on your side, but you will benefit from heavily reduced accommodation and flight ticket deals.

If weather is an important factor for your trip to Tonga, use this chart to help with planning. For those seeking warmer temperatures, February is the ideal time of year to visit, when temperatures reach an average of 27.0 C. Travellers hoping to avoid the cold should look outside of July, when temperatures are typically at their lowest (around 22.0 C).
If you are planning on visiting Tonga during the ‘dry’ season months of May through to November, try and book your flights as early as possible to get the best deals due to the increased demand for flight tickets during this period. This is particularly true during the Australian and New Zealand school holiday periods and Christmas/New Year when many expat Tongans are traveling home to visit family. If you are traveling in the ‘wet’ season, you should be able to pick up some good flight deals, even if you’re booking last minute.
