bustling port at nuku alofa in tonga

this is the main port at nuku alofa, capital city of tonga.

a little bit different to port botany., but that’s the charm.

if you wander down to the docks in the afternoon, you can meet the local fishermen.

they hand spear all their fish while snorkelling. you can pick up a plastic bag full of fish, maybe 3-4 kilos worth (mixed species) for about AUD$5.

not bad at all. makes me wonder why they keep eating this.
