We joined Seafari Fishing Charters for a half day fishing adventure off the coast of Rarotonga. As the boat cruises out to the deeper water drop off the view of the island is spectacular. Being a volcanic island we didn't have to go far as it drops off to deep water fairly close to shore. It is a trolling set up as it was the large fish we were catching and it wasn't too long before we had our first bite. Everyone on board got to have a go bringing in the fish and a great thing to see was that even those who weren't very experienced with fishing had the chance to bring in a fish with the help and advice of the crew. If you have any questions please leave a comment and we'll get back to you with an answer as soon as we can. I hope you enjoy our videos from our television series INTO WATER & BEYOND.

Updated: 25 Jan 2015

The Cook Islands (Listeni/ˈkʊk ˈaɪləndz/; Cook Islands Māori: Kūki 'Āirani[3]) is an island country in the South Pacific Ocean in free association with New Zealand. It comprises 15 islands whose total land area is 240 square kilometres (92.7 sq mi). The Cook Islands' Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), however, covers 1,800,000 square kilometres (690,000 sq mi) of ocean.[4] The Cook Islands' defence and foreign affairs are the responsibility of New Zealand, which is exercised in consultation with the Cook Islands. In recent times, the Cook Islands have adopted an increasingly independent foreign policy. Although Cook Islanders are citizens of New Zealand, they have the status of Cook Islands nationals, which is not given to other New Zealand citizens. The Cook Islands' main population centres are on the island of Rarotonga (14,153 in 2006), where there is an international airport. There is a larger population of Cook Islanders in New Zealand, particularly the North Island. In the 2006 census, 58,008 self-identified as being of ethnic Cook Islands Māori descent.[5] With about 100,000 visitors travelling to the islands in the 2010–11 financial year,[6] tourism is the country's main industry, and the leading element of the economy, ahead of offshore banking, pearls, and marine and fruit exports.
