Bora Bora is a small South Pacific island north-west of Tahiti in French Polynesia. Bora Bora is located on a dormant volcano island, set on one of the most beautiful and crystal-clear lagoons in the world, coloured in a million shades of blue. Known for gorgeous luxury resorts and numerous adventurous activities, it is one of the northwestern islands that make up The Islands of Tahiti. The vast motu of Bora Bora’s white-sand beaches lined with coconut trees encircle the emerald lagoon that’s populated with myriad fish and multicoloured corals. The tallest point is the breathtaking Mount Otemanu at Bora Bora’s centre. It’s easy to understand why this little 15 square mile island is revered as one of the most intimate and idyllic vacation destinations. Every 50 minutes, flights to Bora Bora from Papeete and Moorea are available through Air Tahiti for those looking to island-hop.
