Fodor's Expert Review Nukuleka
Nuku'alofa
Town/Village
Just east of Nuku’alofa on Vuna Road is the small fishing village of Nukuleka. It has little to offer tourists other than the fact that scientists now believe it is the oldest settlement in Polynesia, dating back nearly 3,000 years (Polynesia is a vast area defined by Hawaii in the north, New Zealand in the south, and Easter Island in the east).
