Aitutaki Atoll, Cook Islands

Aitutaki Atoll, Cook Islands

This magnificent and remote island is the stuff of which dreams are made. It consists of three volcanic and 12 coral islets (motus). The lagoon is a continually changing palette of blues, greens and greys, and the nearest horizon is the encircling reef. The high point of any visit to Aitutaki is a lagoon cruise. Several operators run these and most boats go to Tapuatae, One Foot Island, at the far south-eastern corner of the huge lagoon.
