The population of the atoll is about 6,000 people. Huahine is a popular surf destination with good waves all year round.

Rarotonga is the largest of the Cook Islands in the South Pacific. The island consists of volcanic mountains and is surrounded by a coastal strip. Rarotonga is the most built up and populous of the islands, meaning there is plenty to do but with no buildings taller than a palm tree, it maintains that laid back, exotic island feeling. The highlight of the island is arguably Muri Lagoon where you can white beaches and calm, warm water perfect for snorkelling. A bit further afield there are great spots for deep water fishing and you can book various excursions from Rarotonga. What you probably wouldn’t expect to find on the island is the Koteka Winery where you sample local banana (yes, banana) wines.
