When you're packing for a trip to the Cook Islands, don't forget the essentials like your visa, passport, chargers, camera, sunblock, some NZD and the correct power adaptor. From there, we recommend packing a towel, plenty of bathing suits, insect repellent, a hat, reef shoes and flip flops, some walking shoes and a great book to relax and read by the water.
