Bora Bora

EXPLORE THE LAGOON

BORA BORA

The pristine white-sand beaches of Bora Bora help draw your gaze to the blueness of the water as well as the tropical-coloured fish and coral gardens that live under the water’s surface. Here luxury resorts and spas dot the island with romantic overwater bungalows and thatched-roof villas. When it comes to beauty, Bora Bora is the jewel of the archipelago.

DIVE
SITES

Bora Bora is an ideal location for visitors to learn to dive. Its sheltered lagoon is teeming with marine life making every visit unforgettable.

Anau

If you’re looking to see a manta ray then Anau is the place to do it. This dive site is protected by the dive companies to ensure no matter what species you observe, they will always feel safe enough to come out and say hello.

Tapu

The slope of this underwater pass was named after the Motu who were used to locate this dive site. If you’re looking for thrills then dive in and meet the large lemon sharks that reside here. Make sure to bring your camera too because they like their photo taken.

Muri Muri

This spot is famous for drift diving. For 40 meters you’ll be able to float across this tongue of white-sand bottoms and its huge field of corals. Here colonies of heterocongres (congrid eels) poke their heads out of the sand to greet you as schools of trevally accompany you on your journey.
