10 Child-Free Activities in Niue

1. Enjoy a Niue Night Out!

Niue has a surprising range of bars, many with a happy hour to have discounted cocktails, wine and beer. You’ll also find that some bars are only open one night a week, so you can always find a new watering hole with a different experience, whether it’s karaoke or partying into the wee hours. See When is Happy Hour in Niue? for more drinking details, as well as The Ultimate Guide to Niue Nightlife for places to party.

Location: All over Niue! See the 11 Best Bars in Niue for recommendations.

2. Head Out on an Amazing Scuba Diving Excursion

Exclusively for ages 10 years and above, scuba diving is mostly an adults-only experience where you can enjoy the underwater world of Niue without disturbance. Dive through dramatic chasms, underwater caves, coral reefs and more in impeccably clear waters. PADI-accredited dives and courses are available on the island, which you can learn more about in The Guide to Scuba Diving in Niue.

3. Hit the Mountain Bike Trails

We call this “adults-only” mainly because you rarely run into anyone else on the remote and captivating bike trails of Niue. Delve deep into the bush and the heart of the island on one of the mountain biking bush trails. You can also make a loop, returning on one of the quiet coastal roads, stopping by various swimming holes along the way. Get planning your cycling excursion with The Guide to Cycling & Mountain Biking in Niue.

Location: See the links above for recommended bike trail locations.

5. Indulge in a Facial

A beauty salon in the heart of Alofi, Vilina‘s facials are an irresistible addition to your island getaway.

Choose organic coconut embryo to massage the skin, and bask in the scents of Niue honey, vanilla and/or passionfruit. Manicures and pedicures, waxing and hairdressing services are also available.
