Niue

Discover the Pacific’s hidden gem


Niue is the middle sibling of the Pacific; the one that’s frequently overlooked, but has so much to offer. Due to its small population of under 1,500 people and the lack of crowds, you can actually get a really authentic, local experience here. Added to that is a lack of connectivity and you’ll truly be able to disconnect from hectic modern life for a period of time.


Here you’ll find some of the best snorkelling and diving anywhere in the world, and if you’re visiting during whale-watching season there’s a good chance you’ll get to see some of these wonderful creatures when you’re out on the water. There’s also plenty to explore on land, and the locals are happy to show you some of their favourite spots. Take an e-Bike tour for a leisurely way to travel across the island. 


Our World Travellers consultants love Niue, and they’d love to share their personal travel tips and recommendations with you on how to make the most of a holiday here. Get in contact with your nearest store to start planning your getaway to this underrated Pacific paradise.

Visiting Limu Pools is an amazing experience – you get to see salt and freshwater colliding, and swim amongst the sea life with big cliffs rising up beside you.

My highlight of Niue would have to be the morning spent freestyling it round the island on Niue’s newest form of transportation – e-bikes. This was a great way to explore the island.

E-bikes rented from Freedom Bikes Niue have plenty of power for top-to-bottom island jaunts, big fat tyres to soak up the bumps and seats for one's backside to enjoy while seeing the sights and meeting the locals.

When on Niue, make sure you enjoy delicious Roti from Gill’s Indian takeaway for lunch, a five course Japanese dinner from Kaiika, coffee & brownies from The Crazy Uga and a lunch time visit to Hio Café where they cook you restaurant-style burgers on the BBQ.

I ate one of the best burgers I’ve ever had at the Washaway Café! You serve drinks yourself and record what you’ve taken in a drinks book, then you pay via Eftpos or Cash.

On a calm evening you can have dinner on the deck of the Scenic Matavai accompanied by the slapping of giant whale fins really close to shore because of the deep drop off.

The biggest fishing charter boat on Niue carries five passengers, but the operators are happy to work together and take out a couple of boats together for larger groups.
