Cook Islands Aitutaki
With its expansive, shallow waters and vivid palette of blues, Aitutaki’s spectacular lagoon has been described by many as one of the most beautiful in the world. Snorkel the island’s turquoise waters on the lookout for watermelon- sized clams and colorful reef fish. Shop for local crafts, learn the legend of the mighty Rae, and soak up a breathtaking panorama from the hilltop of Maunga Pu. Visit Aitutaki on our Cook Islands & Society Islands itinerary (p.46).
Rarotonga
Rarotonga’s steep, jungle-clad volcanic peaks stand in stark contrast to Aitutaki’s low-lying atolls. Trek through the island’s lush interior alongside Pa, a local healer, learning about the use of medicinal plants along the way. Spot an exotic flycatcher, indigenous to Rarotonga, on a Takitumu conservation tour. Enjoy a taste of local history and tradition at a cultural show, and spend an afternoon snorkeling among schools of tropical fish on Muri Lagoon. Visit Rarotonga on our Cook Islands & Society Islands itinerary (p.46).
