Ko Kao ko e motu lahi ia, ko e moʻungaafi ia. ʻOku tuʻu ʻa e fonua ʻi he hihifo ʻo Haʻapai ʻi he tuʻahivi fakamoʻungaafi ʻo Tonga. Hono māʻolunga ʻo e moʻunga: ko ʻe mita ʻe 1046, ko e māʻolunga taha ʻi Tonga. Neongo ia, neongo hono ofi ki Tofua, ʻoku mate ʻa e ngotoʻumu ʻo Kao.

Naʻe vahevahe ʻa e kelekele ʻo e motu ki he kakai. Naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe he puluʻanga ʻa e ngaahi kolo ʻe ua:

Kae ko e ongo kolo eni, ʻoku mahaloloto pē. Taimi ʻe niʻihi ʻoku ngāue ha kakai ʻe 20 pe 50 pē, kae nofo kinautolu ʻi Matuku pe Kotu pe ko e hā motu ʻo Lulunga. Ko e ngāue heni ko e ngoue fakatupu kava.
