Tourist points
With so many ways to enjoy these beautiful islands, the hard part is deciding what to start with first. Stroll along virtually deserted white sand beaches, relax in a hammock as you watch the waves roll, or go out on the lagoon or deep in the jungle to enjoy the many activities and adventures they offer. That is the beauty of this South Pacific destination.
Aitutaki - an emerald green main island, is arguably one of the most beautiful of all South Pacific destinations.
Atiu - There are few places in the world like Atiu, an island over 8 million years old - ancient, remote and lush with dense rainforests and coastal woods. Known as the land of birds, Atiu is about half the size of Rarotonga. The villages are on the central plateau, where the soil is rich and some of the best coffees on the entire Pacific coast are organically grown.
Mangoia - is the second largest and southernmost of the Cooks Islands. This island is made up of high limestone coral, dotted with numerous caves that span gigantic underground caves.
Mauke - Often described as the Cook Island Garden Island, it is hugged by a nearby reef.
Mitiaro is one of the most beautiful and remote islands in the Pacific. Mitiaro has a distinctive history, as well as the unique appeal of some of Polynesia's most impressive underground pools and limestone caves.

Presentation
The Cook Islands are a nation in the South Pacific with political ties to New Zealand. Its 15 islands are spread over a very large area. Cook Islands defense and foreign affairs are the responsibility of New Zealand, but are exercised in consultation with the Cook Islands.
The Cook Islands are located in the South Pacific, at the same time as Hawaii. An untouched paradise where "over-tourism" does not exist.
There are no renowned resorts, no taller buildings than a coconut tree - even though the islands offer modern amenities and incredibly affordable resort accommodations, ranging from home stays to luxury lakeside resorts and everything in between. There are properties that suit everyone's budget, taste and location - your options are endless. Most properties are small to medium in size, with many situated on the beach in tropical gardens.
Discover true island life in the South Pacific.
