The turquoise waters are an irresistible invitation to a dive and a swim in absolute tranquility. Its heart, on the other hand, is volcanic, covered with lush forest, where meadows, cultivated areas, villages, and colorful markets emerge. In Rarotonga, there are the airport and basic services.
Aitutaki, narrow, long, and always very green, boasts what is considered one of the most beautiful lagoons on earth, already in the news since the 1950s, when the stars of Hollywood, John Wayne and Cary Grant leading the way, landed there in luxurious “flying boats,” indulging in magnificent swims. It goes without saying that such beautiful, intact, and primal environments are associated with the idea of harmony and happiness, and that these islands have become the very ideal of paradise. A paradise to which man has extended a friendly hand, promoting a thoughtful tourism development careful not to undermine the balance. The result is low-impact hotels and resorts, built with natural materials, with simple and refined design. Besides being an ideal destination for honeymoons, the Cook Islands offer the possibility to celebrate dream weddings (and anniversaries), legally recognized also in Italy, with suggestive ceremonies against the backdrop of beaches and forests.
