Rarotonga

Rarotonga combines a steep volcanic interior with a low coral-fringed coast in a way that reflects its position within the southern Cook Islands. The country’s largest island is also home to Avarua, the national capital, on its northern shore. Te Manga, rising to 658 metres, is Rarotonga’s highest summit, while a reef-enclosed lagoon extends around much of the coastline. Cook Islands Māori culture remains integral to island life, expressed in drumming, dance and the intricate tivaevae textile tradition. Inland roads and the coastal ring road link settlements, beaches and cultivated areas across this compact Pacific island.
