Tokelau Tourist Attractions

Tokelau Islands are beautiful and remote, that they are the last explored and settled by the Europeans. Since the islands are forgotten during the colonization in the Pacific, they have become British Protectorate. This ensured an unspoiled natural glamour of the islands. It prevented the massive lost of fauna and flora all over the island. Tokelau become famous for this and the country become a haven for holiday paradises.

Tokelau is densely peopled with all the desirable characteristics you could want from an island in the Pacific. They will welcome you with the caring hospitality and smiles that warms the heart of every visitor. Living in the villages, they will guide you to the most pristine sights all over the island. The locales are very proud of their place that you’ll never miss any attraction in the island.

Tokelau is a home for guest houses rated four stars. One of this is the Tokelau Guest House. It is a four star Boutique Bed and Breakfast. This accommodation has been lovingly restored to its former glory back in 1909. It has five generous bedrooms that offer private balconies, nooks or gardens from each room. Tokelau Guest House provides the standard for lodgings in the islands. Tokelau depends on imported goods like rice, flour and sugar for its food in daily life. Fish and coconuts are abundant. So, you can expect mouthwatering fish or coconut rice meals.

Tokelau Activities

With the pride of beautiful water and land all around and in the island, Tokelau showcases lots of activities. Enjoy the water doing some water activities like swimming, fishing, dolphin cruises, kayaking, scuba diving and beach walks. There are also some facilities and services that offer golfing and rainforest tours. All you need to do is reach the island and be a part of these activities.

Tokelau culture is Polynesian culture. Sharing of resources according to need and respect for elders are integral characteristics of this culture. Age typically determines the level of employment; the older Tokelauans holding managerial positions. The division of labor has men involved mostly in fishing, farming, and construction and women in maintaining the villages. 

However, many Tokelauans are employed in public service, and such divisions of labor are blurred in these occupations. Most of the land is managed by kin groups. Many Tokelauans are members of more than one kin group. Essentially all Tokelauans have rights to land and to a share of the produce of the land. Although land can be transferred to other Tokelauans, it cannot be transferred to foreigners. Each atoll consists of one village. The villages have a small-town, rural character, although, as a result of the small amount of inhabitable land, they are densely populated. All the villages hold regular inter-island sports, dancing, and fishing competitions.

There is one school on each atoll, which provides education for pre-schoolers and kids years 1 through 10. There is one University extension, the University of the South Pacific, on Atafu. The population dresses conservatively and strictly observes the Christian Sabbath. Atafu is the most conservative island. There, alcohol is rationed. Traditional foods include fish, sweet potato, taro root, breadfruit, pork, poultry, and coconuts.
