2. Find Yourselves a Secluded Snorkelling Spot
It’s not uncommon to find yourselves alone in many of Niue’s nooks and crannies. The island’s coastline is scattered with chasms, caves, beaches, reefs and bush walks. What’s more, many of these locations have swimming holes where snorkelling is like getting into an aquarium!

3. See How You Would Fare in the Wild Together on a Nature Tour
Can you imagine being marooned on an island together? Well, find out how you would survive by taking one of the fantastic and informative nature tours in Niue. For instance, Misa’s Nature Tour is hosted by a Niuean who grew up living in the Niuean forests, where you’ll learn to make fire, what plants to use for medicinal remedies, eat and drink coconuts through their different stages of life and much more! Alternatively, become acquainted with the Niuean forest on the Ebony Rainforest Tours where you’ll learn how traditional food and medicines are gathered, visit stunning caves and see the rare ebony wood that your host uses to carve spectacular sculptures and jewellery.

6. Cycle the Uncrowded Forest Bike Trails
More ways you can spend time in Niue, just the two of you, are on the bike trails. Ride on old 4×4 tracks through the tropical bush, seeing parts of the island very few visitors get to see. Much of the island is flat, so riding around is an enjoyable experience. Some accommodations offer bike hire for free, while bike rentals are also available through some car rental companies. See The Guide to Mountain Biking in Niue for more information.
