Located far east off the coast of New Zealand, out in the middle of the ocean, the Cook Islands make for a great remote and romantic getaway. This series of 15 islands are a beach paradise, big enough to provide what you need and still small enough to make you forget about the rest of the world. But when you come, don’t expect giant luxury hotels. The islands haven’t been devoured by the beast of tourism quiet yet, so it’s just beautiful scenery and simple pleasures. Have fun sailing, snorkeling, diving or swimming. Or just relax and do what you will, far away from the pressures of everyday life. Has anyone made it out to the Cook Islands before? Which among the 15 is your favorite?
