Tafahi is a small (1.2 km × 2.8 km or 0.75 mi × 1.74 mi) island in the north of the Tonga archipelago in fact closer to Savaiʻi (Sāmoa) than the main islands of Tonga. It is only 9 km (5.6 mi) north-northeast away from Niuatoputapu and fishermen communicate in small outboard motorboats almost daily between the two.Other names for Tafahi are Cocos Eylant (coconut island) or Boscawen island.
