Bora Bora
Mystical, mythical Bora Bora is renowned for its spectacular scenery, romance and a brilliant blue lagoon and reef that James Michener hailed the most beautiful in the world. The island is an extinct volcano that formed two towering black peaks on the center of the island. Many visitors are drawn to the central lagoon, famed as a great dive site with a variety of sharks, rays, and tropical fish. Those seeking expansive beaches will be disappointed as there are relatively few beaches on the main island; however there are miles of sandy cays along the reef line, with secluded beach areas, home only to sand crabs and palm trees that are ideal for a picnic and shelling. However, it is the stunning lagoon, Bora Bora’s treasured feature that draws visitors to swim, snorkel, dive, windsurf and Jet Ski. Surrounding the island with shallow waters, that warm easily in the sun, this lagoon area is filled with coral and marine life.

Other activities include a visit to Tiki Village, where tourists can see traditional Polynesia in an authentically recreated village. Visitors will see the making of the crowns of flowers called hei as well as tattooing, carving and paraeo painting. The village also showcases a spectacular Polynesian dance and an island feast in the celebration of the tamaiaraia. For a once in a lifetime thrill, view shark feeding close up on the outer reef. Using a snorkel and flippers visitors enter the water while Tahitian divers hand feed black-tip sharks. Helicopter sightseeing tours are available to view the mult-hued lagoon and lushly forested interior. It’s a wonderful opportunity to closely look at Mount Otemanu.
Visit the Bora Bora Lagoonarium where you will be given a mask and fins to swim in shallow waters alongside a wide variety of tropical fish, rays and sand sharks. Trained guides are there to help with any questions and bread is available to feed the hungry underwater life that will certainly come to your side for a meal.
On shore are various resorts offering cocktails or meals and numerous spas for a relaxing Polynesian treatment. In fact Bora Bora probably has more resorts in all price ranges to choose from than any other Polynesian island. Many have an area of shops, which are also found along the roadside, a large number of which feature Black Pearls.
The famous restaurant Bloody Mary’s is located along the shore road, to dine sitting on coconut stumps set on a sand floor. Bloody Mary’s always features the local fresh caught “fish of the day”, and of course, their signature drink, The Bloody Mary.
