Niue

DESTINATION INFORMATION

Fakaalofa atu!

Close to home, yet a world apart. Just three hours northeast of New Zealand and you're a whole world away. Originally settled by migrating Tongans, Samoans and Cook Islanders, Niue evolved a unique culture and language, similar to, but quite separate from its neighbours.

No crowds - ever!
There are less than 90 hotel rooms in Niue, so sometimes the number of visiting whales out-number the visiting humans. Seriously.
A quarter of Niue is virgin rainforest, and guided walks will help you explore this safely. You'll have all the space and time you need to do your own thing and you won't have to queue to do it.
More than you can imagine. Much more than you'd ever expect.
You'll have everything you need to be more than comfortable, but you'll rediscover what's been lost in this modern world. They don't need traffic lights so they don't have any.
They also don't have anything on Niue that's carnivorous or poisonous or even large enough to harm you, so you can amble anywhere, anytime, in safety. But be careful - it's an addictive feeling!
Unspoilt Polynesia - the way it all used to be.
They can't change what's been done elsewhere, but they'll prevent it ever happening in Niue.
Niue's a place where Nature hasn't been broken.
Where it's normal for strangers to wave at each other, all the time.
Where the sound of laughter mixes with the drumming ocean waves.
Where everything stops at 4 PM and no-one understands the meaning of the words ‘hurry' and ‘rush', so it pays not to use them!
