Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Nikao Tapere?
The best area to stay in Nikao Tapere is along the main coastal road, Ara Tapu, particularly between the Nikao Beach area and the western edge of Avarua.

This stretch of Nikao Tapere offers a convenient blend of beach access and proximity to amenities. Ara Tapu is the primary road circling Rarotonga, making it easy to navigate. Here, you'll find a selection of accommodations directly on or very near the beach, providing easy access to the lagoon for swimming and snorkelling.

For couples looking for a relaxing escape, this area is ideal. Many properties here offer private bungalows or villas with ocean views, superb for enjoying the sunsets. You're also just a short drive from several excellent restaurants in the neighbouring villages, offering a quiet yet accessible base for your holiday.

Families will also find this area suitable due to the easy beach access and the relatively calm waters of the lagoon, which are good for younger swimmers. Some larger properties offer facilities like swimming pools and spacious grounds, providing plenty of room for everyone to enjoy themselves.
When is the best time to go to Nikao Tapere?
The best time to visit Nikao Tapere, Cook Islands, is during the dry season, which runs from May to October.

During these months, you'll experience consistently sunny days, lower humidity, and pleasant temperatures averaging around 25-27Ā°C. This period is ideal for enjoying the beautiful beaches, engaging in water activities like snorkelling and paddleboarding, and exploring the island without the interruption of heavy rainfall. The evenings are also cooler and more comfortable.

For couples seeking a relaxing escape, the dry season offers superb conditions for romantic strolls along the beach or dining al fresco. The calmer seas are also excellent for boat trips to explore the surrounding lagoons and marine life.

Families travelling with children will find the dry season particularly convenient. The predictable good weather makes planning outdoor activities straightforward, from swimming in the warm waters to exploring local markets and cultural sites.
