What to do

Culture & History

It was during the Great Polynesian Migration, beginning around 1500BC that swept across the Indian and Pacific Oceans, when the fifteen islands making up the Cook Island archipelago were discovered

Arts & Crafts

The art of Tatto, the art of wood and pearl carving, pareu, tivaevae, flower Eis and much more

Our Land

The fifteen individual islands that make up this tiny archipelago, scattered across some 2.2 million square kilometres of the South Pacific Ocean, offer an exceptional diversity of Polynesian culture and scenic beauty

Nature

The geological landscape of the 15 islands making up the Cook Island group range from low lying coral atolls surrounded by outer reefs encircling turquoise lagoons in the northern group, to the verdant jungle clad peaks of Rarotonga and raised makatea coral islands of four of the southern group islands

Getting aroud

Air Rarotonga connects the main island of Rarotonga to most of the southern group islands on a regular basis and few of the northern group islands. Just a 45 minutes flight from Raro and you are in Aitutaki!
