Climb up to Raratonga’s famous Te Rua Manga (The Needle), guided by Pa, an icon in himself – he walks barefoot and has swum around the island ten times. Understandably, he’s a bit of a local legend… Pa' s Mountain Walk costs £21 per person and can be booked through your hotel.

 

Go shopping. The islands’ various artists produce some excellent, vividly-coloured art. Browse and buy with A-riki Art Tours, from £23 per person. 

 

Book yourself onto a boat for the day and experience the true perfection of these beautiful islands. The Aitutaki Adventures Lagoon Cruise is a snip at £23 per person. 

 

Go fishing! Sweet Papa Paiere will take you hunting for bait, then fishing off the coral at Atiu. Lagoon fishing on Atiu, from £9 per person. 

 

Pick up a kayak. Most hotels will have kayaks on the beach for guests to use. Jump in and row yourself out to the nearest stretch of island sand. Best of all, it’s free!
