One of the best beaches for families is Muri beach on Rarotonga island. It is the safest place for kids, protected from the open ocean waters by four off-shore islets. One more family beach with a long and wide gentle coastline is Black Rock and Nikao beach. It's the most popular place for local families. Couples can find themselves very comfortable on One Foot Island. This is one of the most romantic places on the planet.
