"Turou oro mai"
t is my pleasure to extend a warm welcome to all our visitors to the Cook Islands - both those who are returning and those visiting our shores for the first time.
We are delighted to have you here in our “little piece of paradise” after what has been a tough few years for us all.

From basking in the sunshine and relaxing on the golden sand of any one of our beautiful beaches, to enjoying a soothing dip in the lagoon, there is plenty to see and do during your stay with us.
The Cook Islands people are renowned for their hospitality. You can be sure that you’ll receive a friendly smile, a warm kia orana and a willingness to help wherever we can.
IWe want your time with us to be as enjoyable and carefree as possible. For the intrepid adventurers, our mountains provide the perfect backdrop for a challenging but rewarding trek with views that are breathtaking.
The ocean is a playground for those who want to explore beneath the surface or would rather stay on the water while catching a fish or two. There is also ample opportunity to gain intimate insight into our culture, traditions, and our cuisine. Food or kaikai, which is gratefully gifted to us from the land and the sea is centre to our existence - it brings us together. We hope you love our place as much as we love sharing it with you.
Kia orana e kia manuia
