After spending a couple of days on Rarotonga, we caught an early flight to Aitutaki to experience and photograph the Aitutaki Day Tour run by Air Rarotonga. Air Raro organised to bring along a lovely local couple for us to shoot some underwater footage in the pristine waters. The weather wasn’t quite idyllic for above land, however underwater it made little difference – with plenty of fish, and some incredible giant clams on view! The tour starts with a quick 4×4 tour of Aitutaki, before boarding the double hull vaka (Titi ai Tonga) for a couple of snorkelling spots featuring a plethora of fish. Followed by a freshly caught BBQ lunch on board the Vaka before heading to the infamous One Foot Island for an afternoon of relaxation. We highly recommend the Aitutaki Day Tour to anyone has a spare day during their stay in the Cook Islands.
