Operating along the coast road in both directions, the service starts in Avarua but allows passengers to flag down the bus at various points along the route. Managed by Cook’s Island Bus Passenger Transport Limited, the service is known for its affordability and flexibility, picking up and dropping off passengers upon request. For the latest updates on schedules and operational details, checking with local sources or directly with the transport provider is advisable.

The Cook Islands have only a handful of pharmacies, with the majority located in Rarotonga, the largest island. Common medications are typically available, but for less frequently prescribed ones, you may need to order them. This process involves waiting for them to be shipped to the island, which can be subject to delays depending on the air services and shipping schedules. To avoid any inconvenience, it's a good idea to bring any essential medications you may need with you. If you have specific health needs or require certain medications, plan ahead and arrange for them well before your trip.
