Hello all,

Reviewed the scant info on Rarotonga and Aitutaki, Cook Islands. We are planning a trip in October for a week, likely 10 morning dives M-F.

We’ve read good things about Adventure Cook Islands. We will likely stay at a mid-range resort in the general area (west-southwest side of Rarotonga).

Aitutaki is a ‘maybe’ at the end for sightseeing, as Hawaiian flies in to RAR on Saturdays, out on Sundays. The Raro dive op is M-F only. That means a free Saturday. We’d spend one night max in AIT (no scuba there) before heading back on Sunday.

Any advice for us? Worth the trip? Haul our gear or use theirs?

[We’re SoCal people who dive tropics only. Happily, after 27 years dry, my wife recently reactivated her AOW cert and did Nitrox. We did 10 dives in Cozumel with Azul Divers. She was a happy little fish by the end of the week.]
