High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Tonga Plate is a small southwest Pacific tectonic plate or microplate. It is centered at approximately 19° S. latitude and 173° E. longitude.

The plate is bounded on the east and north by the Pacific Plate, on the northwest by the Niuaf'ou Microplate, on the west and south by the Indo-Australian Plate.
