Destination Weddings in the Cook Islands

For years isolated from major tourist routes, the Cook Islands offer the visitor untouched beauty and a peaceful way of life. Here you'll stroll along beaches edged with swaying palms and swim in warm lagoons protected by coral reefs.

Consisting of 15 fabulous islands scattered over 2,000,000 square kilometers of the Pacific Ocean, the Cook Islands lie virutally in the centre of the Polynesian triangle.

The islands divide naturally into two groups. The eight islands of the southern Cooks include the destinations of Rarotonga and Aitutaki.

Aitutaki is the second most visited of the magical Cook Islands and is recommended as a "must see" extension to your Rarotonga holidays.

Atiu is a fascinating island riddled with caves and surrounded with raised coral cliffs and white sand beaches.

Mangaia is the southernmost island of the Cook group and is also surrounded by coral cliffs with an interior of several swamps and a small lake.

Limestone and volcanic samples on the island date back eighteen million years. Mauke has beautiful white beaches with the reef close to the island, so the lagoon is shallow.

The tropical climate and friendly atmosphere make the Cook Islands a favourite destination to those who simply want to get away from it all, as well as for those of us who are swayed by more adventure challenges.

Kia Orana...are two words you will often hear whe you arrive in teh Cook Islands and are the greeeting of the locals, which is soon embraced by all visitors.

The crystal clear tropical water of the Cook Islands provide a large choice of diving opportunities. There is an amazing array of marine life, coral, canyons, caves and the Mataora wreck.
