Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Manihiki?
The best area to stay in Manihiki is Tauhunu, the main village on the atoll, offering the most convenient access to local life and amenities.

Tauhunu is the largest settlement on Manihiki, located on the western side of the main island. It's where you'll find the primary administrative buildings, the island's only shop, and the communal hall. The village is relatively compact, making it easy to get around on foot, and it provides a direct view of the lagoon.

For travellers seeking an authentic local experience, Tauhunu is ideal. You'll be right at the heart of daily life, observing traditional activities and interacting with residents.
When is the best time to go to Manihiki?
The best time to go to Manihiki is during the dry season, which runs from April to November.

During these months, the weather is consistently pleasant with less humidity and a lower chance of rain, making it ideal for enjoying outdoor activities. Average temperatures hover around 25-28°C, superb for relaxing on the beaches or exploring the lagoon.

This period is particularly good for travellers interested in pearl farming, as the calmer waters and clearer visibility make it more suitable for snorkelling and diving excursions to the pearl farms. It also coincides with the main harvest season for black pearls, offering a unique opportunity to learn about this significant local industry.

Couples looking for a tranquil escape will appreciate the consistently good weather for romantic strolls along the atoll's shores or simply enjoying the peaceful environment without the interruption of heavy rain.
