Cook Islands Holiday Specials

When are you going to travel?

The tranquil Cook Islands are a stunning arrangement of islands that many visitors to the region believe they are the most beautiful island group in the South Pacific. The island culture, traditions, arts and crafts are very distinct from all others islands in the Pacific. Nowhere else will you feel so naturally at one with the island and its peaceful way of life. And the very cool government legislated that no building can be higher than the tallest coconut palm?

There are some simply amazing Cook Island Resorts to choose from priced to suit just about any budget. TravelOnline has access to unique Cook Island Holiday Packages that allow you to save up to 50% off the standard rates. Plus there is a range of day trips from Rarotonga to Aitutaki but unless time is really short go for longer. If you don't stay at least a night or two on Aitutaki you will miss out on what we believe is one of the most beautiful, rare and magical places in the world - Aitutaki's spectacular lagoon.

The Cook Islands magical tranquility is matched only by the people themselves. The hospitality is warm and spontaneous, the dancing exuberant, the mood tropical, sultry and relaxed. Cook Islanders share a genuine care for others and although now Christian, the old culture lives on with song, dance and an easy pace of life uncomplicated by the turmoil and hustle and bustle of today's outside world.

Cook Islanders have retained much of their own culture. Although displays of the Cook Islands past are exhibited in the local museum, Cook Islands culture is not confined to restored sites and museum walls. Polynesian identity can be observed in dance and drama at various events during the year, particularly during Constitutional Celebrations. This is a time to renew the warriors' might, the dancers' grace…a time where heritage excels. However, it is the songs of the Kaparima and the hymns of the Sunday Choir and pride in the traditional crafts that exist in the day-to-day lives of Cook Islanders that best define their proud culture.
