Pangaimotu (Tongatapu)

Pangaimotu is a small island in the Tongatapu group of Tonga, lying near the capital Nukuʻalofa.[1] It is reachable by a 10-minute boat trip from Nukuʻalofa.[2] Aside from the beaches, a centrepiece of the island's attraction is a wreck jumping from the hull of the upturned ship 50 metres off the island's main beach.[3] The island also contains the Big Mama Yacht Club, the Pangaimotu Island Resort and a vanilla plantation.[4]
