It’s possible to take part in a cross-island trek, hiking through the rainforest in the centre. The trek takes between three and four hours and offers stunning views from the summit.
- The main city on Raratonga is Avarua, capital of the islands. Don’t miss the Saturday market, which starts at 8am. Everything is on sale here, from food to jewellery.
- North of Raratonga, Aitutaki is the second most visited island. The beaches here are stunning, and more secluded than those on Raratonga. The much-photographed, One Foot Island has the appearance of the perfect beach: arching palm trees stretch out over white sand towards the turquoise sea. Snorkelling from Aitutaki is excellent.
- A local handicraft in the Cook Islands is Tivaivai, a sewn bed cover, the value of which is said to be determined by how much love and patience was put into its creation.
- If possible, visit a Sunday Mass while you’re on the islands. This is quite an experience and the singing is amazing. Dress for the occasion – certainly no beach wear or overly casual clothes. Islanders will dress up in their Sunday best for church.
- To visit some of the best beaches, take a lagoon cruise. You’ll visit areas that are only accessible by water, with no other holidaymakers – except those from your own boat.
