Atiu Island - General Info
Description:
Home to approximately 400 people, Atiu is more than eight million years old and is the 3rd largest island in the Cook Islands group.
As one of the three Southern Group islands known as Nga-Pu-Toru, Atiu has a small township, a couple of cafes and very little traffic. Life is pretty much the same as it was some 25 years ago and therefore offers a really genuine insight into island living with its five small villages of Tengatangi, Areora, Ngatiarua, Mapumai and Teenui nestled in the centre. Gardens thrive on Atiu’s rich soil and on certain days the soft aroma of organically grown coffee beans roasting wafts past from plantations that produce some of the best Arabica coffee in the Pacific.
Position:
