Why does the moon look the other way round in Nuku’alofa?

From the southern hemisphere you see the moon from the other side of the Earth, so it’s turned over: a growing moon is lit on the left, and the seas are upside down compared with pictures from Europe or North America. The discs on this page are drawn as they look from here.

How accurate are these times?

Moonrise and moonset are when the top edge of the moon meets a flat, clear horizon, worked out from the moon’s position to within two or three minutes. Hills, buildings and haze can hide it for a while longer. Phase times are within a few minutes.
