Cook Islands
Takitumu
Takitumu is a district on Rarotonga, the main island of the Cook Islands. It’s part of the island’s coastal setting and serves as a gateway for visitors to the island’s dive scene. With 29 dive sites spread around Rarotonga, most diving is accessible from the island’s lagoon and outer reefs via local dive centers and charter operators. Expect warm tropical water, gentle currents, and abundant reef life around fringing reefs and nearshore sites. The Cook Islands offer a relaxed reef-focused diving experience ideal for drift dives and macro encounters, though the typical dive takes place from boats departing from nearby coastal villages.
