Where it is & getting there

Getting there (from the nearest int'l airport) source

The international gateway is Rarotonga International Airport (RAR), with direct flights from New Zealand, Australia, Tahiti and elsewhere. Aitutaki Airport (AIT) has no international service; from RAR it is about 50 min on an Air Rarotonga domestic flight (4–6 flights daily). Transfers from Aitutaki Airport to your accommodation. Meet the guide (Butch Leone) at the lagoon boat ramp/jetty and cross by boat to the shallow flats.

How to fish here

For GT The classic approach is popping/casting a diving pencil or popper across the surface; when fish are shy, jigging a heavy metal jig also works.

If the sea gets rough source

Nov–Apr is cyclone season. In strong winds and high swell, fishing can shift to the inner lagoon, but in rough weather reduced surface visibility makes sight fishing difficult.
