    One Foot is the most beautiful motu (island) in the Lagoon. You can rent the cottage and really become Robinson Crusoe.!

  • This is a great show. They talk about all the island traditions, with hoola dancers, warriers, unbelieveable island music.

    Visit Aitutaki, or one of the smaller islands.
    Aitutaki is only 8km long , and a few kms wide, but it is attached to a large, blue lagoon, with many 'motu' or small islands around the perimeter. You can cycle around the island in a few hours, taking in the churches, the villages, and the lagoon. A lagoon cruise is recommended, and you can visit many unihabited islands and pretend you are a castaway for a while! The snorkelling is good, not least because its usually only you and a few other couples in the area! And sipping a tropical cocktail at sunset looking over the lagoon is indescribable.

    as the island is small, rent a bike and cycle round it in 2 HOURS.
    The beaches are a must as you can imagine with the white sand and blue water, and there is even rainforrest on the island. and if you are a surfer or body boarder, take your boards with you, there are some nice waves, just watch it with low tide or you will cut yourself on the reef ( I did haha)

    Go to the Market in town on saturday, and you have to be there early, you get the best deals, and the food is sizzling hot, (great for that hangover), lovely island music, pearls are abundant, pareus cheap too..
