Aitutaki Day Trip - Rarotonga

Are you dreaming of an Aitutaki stay, but are short on time, or perhaps only want to unpack once in Rarotonga? Then a day tour to Aitutaki is a must! Depart Rarotonga for your 50 minute morning flight, before exploring the island by ‘le truck’. Then it is on to the highlight on the day- a catamaran cruise that will explore several motus (small insets) including stunning One Foot Island. There is time to snorkel & swim before savouring a tasty barbeque lunch, cooked right onboard.  You will return back to Rarotonga by 5:30pm allowing plenty of time to watch the sun set with a cocktail in hand.

Bishops Private Cruise – Aitutaki

If you are lucky enough to stay on Aitutaki then you must experience either a private half or full charter with Bishops cruises. Your captain & guide will show you the very best places to snorkel, and the full day option includes a delicious BBQ lunch on One Foot island.

Whale Watching - Aitutaki

This Whale watching tour allows you to swim with the whales if you are fortunate enough to encounter these magnificent creatures up close. Even better- there is the option to have the tour to yourselves as this is offered as both a group tour and a private charter.

Swim with turtles - Rarotonga

These majestic animals are in abundance in the Avaavaroa passage of Rarotonga, watch their peaceful swimming with your loved one in this tropical water paradise
