Location & Nearby Attractions
Muri Beach is a two-kilometre-long, white, sandy beach. On one side is the reef and four easily-accessible islets – known as motu – that nestle invitingly in the lagoon: Ta’akoka, Koromiri, Oneroa, and Motutapu. On the other side, the lush hills and mountains are visible through trees, which offer shady respite from the tropical sun.
There are also restaurants, bars, and several places to hire water sports equipment. Marine life is abundant in the lagoons of Rarotonga, making for great snorkelling, or lessons can be booked with any scuba-diving operators.
On Saturdays the Rarotonga Sailing Club (operating from Sails Restaurant) has lagoon races and welcomes visitors. Sunday to Friday lagoon cruises on glass bottom boats operate in Muri lagoon. These offer snorkelling, barbeque lunches, and great entertainment from the crew – they’re a fun-filled day out! Muri lagoon is also the best location for windsurfing and kitesurfing, while kayaking is possible just about everywhere around Rarotonga. Windsurfers, kayaks, kitesurfing, and standup paddle-boards can be hired from water sports outlets, and most hotels located on the foreshore around the island.
