Boat trips out to Cooks Reef from Emae island can be arranged, as well as mountain trekking up to Mt Lasi and Mt Talimasa, village walks, visiting bones of a huge whale that was washed ashore, and learning how to weave is a highlight on Emae island.
On Tongoa, you can try kava at the local kava bar and watch how the villagers bake island food in the earth oven as well as catch the bakers bake local bread on the island, and many more activities to keep you occupied which you can ask your hosts to organize for you or share with you what they can offer.
