Niue

This tranquil island paradise is the Pacific's best-kept secret

Niue

No crowds, no rush, just island bliss

Imagine a tropical paradise where the only rush hour involves turtles cruising the crystal-clear waters. Welcome to Niue, where you'll always feel more like a local friend than a tourist. Just under four hours from Auckland, this island gem may surprise you, it’s actually four times bigger than Rarotonga!

Known affectionately as 'The Rock', Niue blends relaxation, adventure, and unbeatable natural beauty. With no foreign exchange needed (Niue uses Kiwi dollars), exploring this island couldn’t be easier. Journey along the spectacular 64km coastal road by bicycle or car, discovering hidden coves, dramatic cliffs, and pristine beaches.

Niue is one of the world’s largest raised coral atolls and is home to around 1600 hospitable residents.

Dive or snorkel amid these coral gardens renowned for their spectacular visibility, or glide through waters alongside gentle humpback whales during their annual visit. During season, it's not uncommon to see more whales than humans here!

So why not swap crowded beaches for secluded coves, bustling streets for lush island trails, and busy itineraries for laid-back days in one of the world’s safest and friendliest destinations?

Chat to one of our Pacific Island specialists to turn this dream into reality.

"Had made an online enquiry on New Year's Day and therefore was not expecting to a reply until the next business day (5th January). Therefore, was pleasantly surprised to be contacted by Gemma on Jan 2nd regarding our holiday query. Gemma was prompt in replying to any further queries and arranging our travel. Kept us informed of the progress on the booking arrangements and subsequent confirmations."
