Cook Islands Whale Watching Guide

Be sure to visit the Whale Research Centre in Avarua Town which has information about the migration, news on recent sightings and a small collection of memorabillia. The best place on Rarotonga to spot humpback whales is along the north coast where the coral reef edge is closest to shore and the most popular spots with good vantage viewing is the Paradise Inn in Avarua Town and from Black Rock on the north west coast.
