Cook Islands: A slice of paradise

With beautiful beaches, a warm tropical breeze and a welcoming environment, it’s easy to see why the Cook Islands are a little slice of paradise. They are located halfway between Hawaii and New Zealand with nonstop flights that depart on Saturdays from Los Angeles and arrive in Rarotonga, the main island. You arrive at sunrise to a guitar player named, Jake, who greets every flight. In the Cook Islands you can do anything from lounging at the beach to taking in a lagoon cruise and exploring the area. Be sure to get a lesson on how to open a coconut! A must see is the island of Aitutaki which is only a 45 minute flight away. You will not be disappointed in the many food opportunities prepared with their island flair. Not only are the Cook Islands surrounded by beautiful scenery and culture but they are far removed from all the everyday hustle and bustle which makes them a great choice for your next island adventure.
