Cook Islands Rewind | Rarotonga Cook Islands Vacation Travel Guide 🕶

Cook Islands :
Situated at the very centre of Polynesia, the Cook Islands is an archipelago nation comprised of 15 islands. It is spread across an area in the South Pacific, three times the size of Texas, USA.

Sublimely beautiful with pristine white sands fringed by coconut palms – the Cook Islands possess a castaway island magic, and yet is only a 4 hour flight from New Zealand.

According to legend, these tiny islands, dotted amongst the vast ocean, were discovered thousands of years ago by the very finest Polynesian seafarers. Guided by the stars and using other sophisticated navigation techniques, they landed their legendary double hulled Vakas and set about creating paradise. It’s a rhythm you’ll feel as soon as you land at Raratonga (the largest island in the group).

It has been almost 250 years since Captain Cook became the first European to discover these islands and yet there is a gentle timelessness that endures here.

You could easily drive around this sparkling island in half an hour if you hurry, but that’s the charm of the Cook Islands… no one does! Cook Islands drivers licenses are cheap and available at local police station, although an international license should cover it, but then – it’s rare indeed that a police officer will ever actually CHECK that you have one, unless you do something really obnoxious or stupid on the island, so kindly respect the local way of life, and you will have no problem.

NOTE: Fresh milk is outrageously expensive at close to AU$10 per litre (if you can find it) as all supplies are shipped from New Zealand, and there are no dairies on the island, so powdered milk is really your only viable option.

Come and discover the generous rhythm and warm hospitality of the Cook Islands for yourself – You’ll love it!
