Aitutaki. Cook Island. Polynesia. South Pacific Ocean. Inside the wather in the Aitutaki (Lagoon Cruise). Aitutaki, also traditionally known as Araura, Ararau and Utataki, is one of the Cook Islands, north of Rarotonga. It has a population of approximately 2,000. Aitutaki is the second most visited island of the Cook Islands. The main village is Arutanga (Arutunga) on the west side. Aitutaki is an "almost atoll". It has a maximum elevation of approximately 123 metres with the hill known as Maunga Pu close to its northernmost point. The land area of the atoll is km², of which the main island occupies km². The Ootu Peninsula, protruding east from the main island in a southerly direction along the eastern rim of the reef, takes up km² out of these km² for the main island] For the lagoon, area figures between 50 and 74 km² are found. Satellite image measurement suggests that the larger figure also includes the reef flat, which is commonly not considered part of a lagoon.
