Coconut Shack

Aitutaki


With a circular bar built around a coconut tree, and plenty of absolute beachfront tables and chairs, the Coconut Shack at Paradise Cove fulfills every expectation of a rustic South Pacific watering hole. Cocktails come packed with booze and tropical fruit, hearty mains include fish curry and chicken stuffed with prawn salsa, and whole parrotfish for NZ$28 is good value.
