Water Activities
Paddleboarding and kayaking on Muri Lagoon
📍 Rarotonga, Cook Islands
Where
Muri Lagoon
Opening hours
Daylight; morning is calmest
Typical cost
Hourly and daily hire available along the beach
Muri is the obvious place to paddle: shallow, protected and with four small islands to give the outing a destination.
Where to go
Koromiri and Motutapu are within comfortable reach on a calm morning. Taakoka is further and the channels between the motu carry more current than the flat surface suggests.
Safety
- Wind picks up in the afternoon and blows offshore in places.
- Stay well away from the reef passages.
- Tell the hire operator where you are heading.
💡 Local tip
Go early. The trade wind builds through the day and paddling back into it from the motu is considerably harder work than the trip out.
