  • Island of Rarotonga, Cook Islands, Pacific Ocean - the Farmers Market (Punanga Nui Market) in Rarotonga island. Let's go to the island of Rarotonga in the beautiful Cook Islands in the Pacific Ocean and let's visit the spectacular Farmers Market (also known as the Punanga Nui Market) which takes place only on Saturdays.
    Punanga Nui is the original, most vibrant market in Rarotonga in the Cook Islands, specialising in local produce, fine fare and socialising with the community.
    The island of Rarotonga is the largest of the Cook Islands, a nation of 15 islands in the central South Pacific. Volcanic peaks, ridges and rainforest dominate the interior of the island of Rarotonga. A 32km, round-the-island road links the beaches, coastal lagoon and reefs that make scuba diving and snorkeling popular. The Cross-Island Track is a rugged hiking trail that passes 650m Te Rua Manga peak, or "The Needle."

      Hi and you for viewing my videos. I spent a whole week in Raro, I had a motorcycle and I must have gone around the whole island 15 times (at least). Loved every moment... It is the only place where I rode the motorcycle under heavy rain, it was lots of fun. There are other videos on my channel from Rarotonga...

    Very lovely and informative video of the spectacular Farmers Market in RAROTONGA (Punanga Nui Market ) COOK ISLANDS, By the look of the clouds you were just very lucky to even be able to video tape that much footage. By the look of the skies the rain in the skies were just about at cloud bursting point and given that it did not stop raining for three days, I can imagine that the humidity was at about 100% and the temperature
    must have been close to 100 degrees F. The market was very well set up and everything
    well placed in the stalls and on the tables. I was very surprised to see the bananas in
    some stalls hanging from their branches from the ground up. Once the rain started did
    the market immediately close up or did it remain open in the rain for the remainder of the day. It is too bad that you were not able to videotape the originally scheduled dance display performance. This was a fantastic video that you took of the market in spite of the heavy cloudy weather. Is it normally this cloudy so early in the day?

      +Michael Friedman Hi Michael, unfortunately I hit Rarotonga just before a huge tropical storm. I arrived on Friday night and I was told that the storm was coming up and that the rain would start around 10am on Saturday. So the first thing that I did on Saturday morning was to run to the market and at around 9am rain started falling. I jumped on my motorcycle and got soaked by the time I arrived back to my hotel.. then, it rained non-stop for 3 days...
