Thank you Sarah Steiner for visiting these beautiful caves. They are currently living in Rarotonga. Sarah's family came to Mangaia and had a great time. Cave Tours are fun with the kids too. Appreciate your photos and comments. If you have visited these famous caves, please share with us.

Tuatini Cave has seemingly endless chambers with astonishingly high ceilings. It looks like honeycombs, others like wax with tiny diamonds that twinkle in the torchlight. It's a never-ending walkway discovering new paths.

Life is simple on Mangaia. Don't expect fancy restaurants. Just peacefulness. And caves.

Mangaia is traditionally known as A'ua'u Enua. The island is the second largest island in the Cook Islands and is rich in culture and tradition. It's a perfect destination for those who want to discover adventure and experience life in one of the most fascinating and remote places in the world... Like being in this cave. You've got to see it one day.

Into the deep, an underground palace.
What you find inside the cave is, it's hard to explain.. it's just amazing.

To think these caves were used and lived in.
Luckily, we have no snakes, poisonous spiders or other deadly animals around.. it's totally safe.

The tour moves at a leisurely pace through a dozen cave rooms where you will learn about the cave's history, early uses, and interesting geological formations such as stalactites, stalagmites, columns and flowstones. It's just magnificent.

Before the tour, visitors learn about safety precautions. We also show our visitors some of the oldest tools used especially the tying of knots and binding these together. No nails were used in those days.

Some early examples are fishing nets, hunting traps, tying stones to sticks to make spears and harpoons, the construction of bows, building shelters, making baskets, fastening clothes, tying animals (and people), constructing rafts. The knots needed to make it work, have played a crucial role in the earliest technological development of man.

Then you will make your way to the 3D map of Mangaia Island where you will see Tuatini Cave. It's just the beginning...

We are excited to announce Mangaia Cave Tours (managed by a number of Cave Tour Operators) are available daily, leaving from the visitor center in Mangaia. Groups are limited to 10-20 visitors per tour depending on type of cave tour.

Experience the wonder of the cave system as we take you on a journey through time to see formations that have grown slowly over thousands of years.
