Rarotonga Swim Getaway
Picture

ABOUT 
Kiwis are grateful for the Quarantine-free travel bubble between the Cook Islands and New Zealand. It offers our ocean swimmers the opportunity to enjoy a six-nights Pacific swim holiday in Rarotonga. We have been watching and evaluating the travel bubble for some time and we like what we are seeing. The Bubble is working well for both countries and for kiwi holiday makers.  

The catalyst for the this quick get away was being able to secure accommodation near Muri Beach at the privately owned Te Puka retreat. While the Swim getaway is swim focused there are also opportunities  for us to explore the beautiful sights of Rarotonga in our spare time.

We are swimming everyday, some days there are two swims. We will work our way from Avarua to Muri Beach. For the long swimmers, you are looking at 4-5km per day. Those looking for a shorter distance will be swimming closer to shore. There is one day we will swim with the locals at the daily lunchtime Boiler Swim based out of Trader Jacks.
