Papua ( Wigmore's) Waterfall, Rarotonga

1.0
#5 of 6 in Nature in Cook Islands
Waterfall · Nature / Park
Splash into the swimming hole at the base of Papua ( Wigmore's) Waterfall, where water cascades down a sloping cliff. Bring your water shoes if you plan to swim, and wear plenty of bug repellant to chase off mosquitos. Before you go, ask the locals if the waterfall is worth visiting. During the dry season, the government redirects water to the town supply, leaving the waterfall almost completely dry. Make Papua ( Wigmore's) Waterfall a centerpiece of your Aroa Beach vacation itinerary, and find what else is worth visiting using our Aroa Beach trip planning site.
