Discover Cook Islands, Aitutaki

June to October

Explore Polynesia, where the palm trees stretch above blue lagoons and people drink coconuts instead of coke (or pepsi... or kale juice, whichever is your thing).

  • Enjoy the beautiful sand beaches on the island of Aitutaki. Do not expect any crowds fighting over plastic sun beds. Vacation in Cook Islands is unique.
  • The island will surprise you with its lush greenery. Discover all its corners by bicycle which are available for free at your hotel. You will have plenty of time to climb the highest peak of unbelievable 124 metres (407 ft) above sea level.
  • You can find the stunning lagoon of Aitutaki in all pictures of Cook Islands. Spend your entire stay there instead of just flying in from the neighbouring Rarotonga for the one day round trip usually offered by travel agencies.
Vacation in Cook Islands - Aitutaki
  • Have a swim, dive, kayak, stand-up paddle or snorkel.
  • Relax with a book or a drink (maybe even both) in your hand lying in a hammock among coconut palm trees, dancing in the rhythm of the ocean breeze.
  • Get to the market and taste fresh tropical fruits and local specialities.
  • Meet the local women all dressed up and in hats with flowers on their way to Sunday Mass, during which they sing like their lives depended on it. They definitely believe their souls do.
  • And later, in the evening, immerse into the whirl of traditional dance and other original Polynesian customs during a local feast.
