Pacific Resort Aitutaki is a secret world of tropical beauty .
Crystal clear water, magnificent palm trees and a white sand beach that stretches over half a kilometer.
A place where time is measured by the sun and moon – not clocks and watches.
Like Rarotonga, Aitutaki has a large range of activities, but has a very different ambience from its larger neighbor. It's lush tropical gardens and pristine beaches are very special, as are the friendly people.
The Aitutaki lagoon is arguably one of the most beautiful in the world and abounds with marine life to delight the snorkeler, particularly the iridescent giant clam, the shallow lagoon makes snorkeling easy.
The most popular swimming, snorkeling and picnic spots are on the small islets to the southeast, each of which has a legend associated with it, such as One Foot Island.
Sailing, diving and fishing (fly casting and light tackle anglers) are all available. For those wanting to explore the island, there is a thirty-minute trek to the highest point which rewards walkers with excellent views.
There is a long history behind Aitutaki and relics of it can still be found everywhere, with solid stone half buildings dotted throughout the island.
The island was settled many centuries ago by the explorer Ru, who brought his brothers and their wives and 10 maidens and began the initial development of the island.
Often used as a stopover, Aitutaki was always on the route of the great flying boats, the Sunderlands.
