# Which Side of Rarotonga Should we stay on? Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Cook Islands
RhondaAlbom 04:17 UTC 12 Aug 2018 | North (Avarua), East (Muri), South (Vaimaanga), West (Arorangi) - which side of Rarotonga would you recommend staying on and why did you pick it? We like snorkelling, beach walks, nice weather, and being near a variety of places to eat. We will travel around the island at least once. |
