Aitutaki Most Amazing 4k Drone Footage Island in the Cook Islands
The Lagoon
The coral lagoon is perhaps the main reason people vacation in Aitutaki, it is approximately 15 km from top to bottom and 12 km along the base. It is filled with colourful, tropical fish, plentiful coral, sea turtles and long sandy beaches.
Aitutaki is one of the Cook Islands, which are in the South Pacific. It consists of a main island, a turquoise lagoon and a surrounding barrier reef. The lagoon’s waters teem with marine life, including rays, bonefish and turtles. Near the main town of Arutanga, trails lead to the top of Maunga Pu hill. Boats run to small uninhabited islands called motu, including tiny Tapuaetai, known for its white sand beaches. ― Google

World’s Best Lagoon? Aitutaki Tour & Sunset Beach Dinner | Cook Islands Ep. 3 of 7
This is a gem of the Cook Islands - Aitutaki and it’s STUNNING lagoon! We’re on a lagoon tour with Bishops and in this vlog we get to… 🎬 Learn how to edit video with Dane — ⬇ More Below ⬇
Welcome back to the Cook Islands for episode 3 of 7 in this travel series. In this vlog we finally get to see what all the Aitutaki chat has been about, checking out the real highlight and top thing to do in Aitutaki, a lagoon tour into the turquoise waters.
Despite visiting the Cook Islands a few times we’ve always been told ‘unless you go to Aitutaki you really haven’t seen the Cook Islands’ — and after our time there, we can kinda see why people say it! Aitutaki is only small, but really shows how beautifully integrated the tourism and travel scene is with a local, traditional, Polynesian culture (which we’ll show more in the next vlog). But more than anything, its all about this lagoon and taking a lagoon tour to reach the outer motu’s and really see the beauty!
It’s easy to understand why Aitutaki is known as the ultimate honeymoon destination! Stay tuned, we've got 4 more Cook Islands vlogs to come as we make our way back to Rarotonga as well.
We were hosted by Cook Islands Tourism to assist in making this travel series in Aitutaki and Rarotonga, but as always we have full editorial control over what we film, what we say, and how we share the experience with you in these vlogs. There’s loads of incredible info about the Cook Islands here for your own holiday —

Aitutaki is an almost atoll. It has a maximum elevation of approximately 123 metres with the hill known as Maunga Pu close to its northernmost point. The land area of the atoll is 18.05 km2 (6.97 sq mi), of which the main island occupies 16.8 km2 (6.5 sq mi).[2] The Ootu Peninsula, protruding east from the main island in a southerly direction along the eastern rim of the reef, takes up 1.75 km2 (0.68 sq mi) out of the main island.[3] For the lagoon, area figures between 50 and 74 km2 (19 and 29 sq mi) are found. Satellite image measurement suggests that the larger figure also includes the reef flat, which is commonly not considered part of a lagoon.
The barrier reef that forms the basis of Aitutaki is roughly the shape of an equilateral triangle with sides 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) in length. The southern edge of the triangle is almost totally below the surface of the ocean, and the eastern side is composed of a string of small islands including Mangere, Akaiami, and Tekopua.
The western side of the atoll contains many of Aitutaki's important features including a boat passage through the barrier reef allowing for anchorage close to shore at Arutanga. Towards the south of the side is a small break in the barrier reef, allowing access for small boats to the lagoon which covers most of the southern part of the triangle. Further to the north is the bulk of the main island. Its fertile volcanic soil provide tropical fruits and vegetables. Two of Aitutaki's 15 islets (motus) are also volcanic. The rest are made of coral.
Aitutaki Airport is located close to the triangle's northern point. There is an area suitable to land flying boats in the southeastern part of the lagoon.
WORLDS BEST HONEYMOON LOCATION? Most beautiful lagoon in Aitutaki 4k!
Hey everyone Nick here from Skeyes our first serious video on Youtube! I wanted to share with you a great place I visted last year. Although it was not our honeymoon I would think that if you were to have a honeymoon this would be the place!
We visited this place last year on our 3 weeks journey through the South Pacific. It was the most beautiful and epic lagoon we have ever seen! Heaven in paradise...A tick off the bucketlist to have visited this place! Funny thing is that inside the lagoon there is actually a place called Honeymoon Island!
These shots were taken with my DJI Mavic Pro 2 drone and gives you a very nice introduction to this paradise in the South Pacific. Having visited Bora Bora, this sure does compete with that place although there is no mass tourism and the hotels are of course not as spectacular (still nice though!). Enjoy the video and if you enjoy please give a like and I hope to bring you more beautiful videos from my travels and photography :) Don't forget to subscribe! Thank you and see you soon!

Aitutaki Day Tour - Explore one of the most beautiful lagoons in the World
If you haven’t planned an overnight or longer stay then this is the way to experience the spectacular colours and beauty of a classic tropical South Pacific atoll.
The day starts with a free transfer from your Rarotonga accommodation and a 40 minute flight to Aitutaki. On descent, the stunning colours of the lagoon come into view and this is usually where everyone has their phone against the windows – capturing the magical landscape below.
On arrival at Aitutaki, the Day Tour takes a 45 minute tour of the island by “Les Truck” taking in views of inland plantations and the main villages. Then the highlight of the day. The renowned Vaka Cruise – six hours of cruising the magnificient blue lagoon aboard the Polynesian styled vaka Titi-ai-Tonga. Visit three (Moturakau, Akaiami, One Foot Island) small motu (islets) fringing the lagoon with time for snorkelling at each one. Experience the solitude of pristine white sand beaches and warm crystal clear water.
Highlights include the iconic One Foot Island (Tapuaetai) and Akaiami – where giant TEAL flying boats used to stopover for refuelling on the famous Coral Route between Fiji, Samoa and Tahiti.
After visiting the snorkelling spot, lunch is served on board. A delicious medley of barbecued pelagic fish steaks served with a variety of fresh salads and tropical fruit all sourced from local farmers. Lunch is accompanied by complimentary tea, coffee, and water, and a cash bar for wine, beer, champagne, and soft drinks is available.
The day ends with an arrival back in Rarotonga at 5.30pm and a free transfer back to your accommodation.
