The Seabourn Quest from the United States visited Nuku'alofa on February 6 with 336 passengers and 347 crew. It departed for Fiji yesterday afternoon at 5pm., shortly after a tsunami watch was issued for Tonga and warning for Fiji was cancelled.

It was the fourth cruise ship to visit the capital this year and docked at Vuna Wharf yesterday morning. Most of the passengers were Americans.

The cruise ship was in Cook Islands before stopping over for a day visit.

The next cruise ship to visit Nuku'alofa will be in March.

A total of 17 cruise ships are expected to visit Tonga this year, a slight increase from 15 that visited last year.
