Explore the lagoon
Go to church
Aitutaki’s lagoon is a wonderful playground for water activities and bonefishing. Get to a motu and play Robinson Crusoe for a day.
Aitutaki was the first of the Cook Islands to embrace Christianity; the CICC church is the country’s oldest. The singing is magnificent.
Explore the roads & tracks
Play a round of tropical golf
Main roads are accessible by car, but smaller tracks only by 4-wheel drive, scooter, or on foot. Great views from Mangapu at 124 metres.
You can hire clubs at the airport.
