The Cook Islands consists of 15 islands spread over 1.85 million square kilometers in the Pacific Ocean, being the centre of Polynesia, with the Kingdom of Tonga and the Samoan islands to the west and Tahiti and French Polynesia to the east. The Cook Islands consist of two groups of islands, - the Northern Group which includes Manihiki, Rakahanga, Penrhyn, Pukapuka, Nassau, Suwarrow and Palmerston - and the Southern Group being Rarotonga, Aitutaki, Atiu, Mitiaro, Mauke, Mangaia, Manuae and Takutea.

The traditional language of the Cook Islands is Cook Island Maori, however, English is the official language and most widely spoken. The currency is New Zealand dollars with the Cook Islands having a $3 note and each of a $5, $2 and $1 coin of their own. In Rarotonga, Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted by most shops, restaurants, eateries, bars and tourist operations, with American Express also accepted in selected outlets.

The capital of the Cook Islands is Rarotonga. This island is 32 kilometres (20 miles) around with a population of nearly 9,000. The island consists of an interior made up of volcanic cloud draped mountains enveloped by dense tropical rain forest and surrounded by a lushly vegetated coastal plain that houses majority of the population and farming land. The main township of Avarua is located in the north east of the island and is the commercial centre, home to most of the government departments, the shipping port and is close to the airport.

Romance is Rarotonga’s middle name – imagine waking to the soft cool tropical breeze sweeping across the protected luminous aqua waters of the lagoon. By day, miles of white sandy beaches to explore, many you will have to yourself. And by night, world class restaurants, bars and nightspots for your wining, dining and dancing pleasure.
