Bora Bora – The Jewel of French Polynesia

Along those reefs stretch sandy motus dotted with some of the most luxurious resorts in the South Pacific. Romantic travel cliché or not, Bora Bora offers fine island luxury in a setting that seems almost too beautiful to exist. A wide range of watersports and tours await. And, as you start to explore, you’ll quickly realize there’s more to fall in love with than Bora Bora’s beauty. From historic sites that tell the atoll’s story, to spellbindingly colourful reefs.

The Magic of Moorea
With very different geography to Bora Bora, Moorea is a popular choice. Above all, for romantics, families, or just globetrotters who want a luxury Polynesian experience. And at a slightly lower price point. It’s commonly seen as a more authentic destination among the Islands of Tahiti. Moorea still offers a wide range of accommodation options including the instantly recognizable overwater bungalows. The island offers its share of memorable experiences. This includes helicopter tours over its lush, ravine-lined hinterland, and 4×4 tours culminating in champagne at sunset.
Unsung Islands of Tahiti
Since each island offers a slightly different history, geography, and all-round experience, it’s important to know a little about each one when choosing destinations beyond Moorea or Bora Bora. For instance, Raiatea will appeal to anyone interested in Polynesian history. Holding both the traditional meeting place, Taputapuatea, and a wide range of archaeological treasures. If you want to travel back even further, say to 700 AD, the Lapita people built a large number of marae on Huahine, the former seat of Polynesian royalty.
If you’d prefer a pure sensory experience, it’s hard to go past Taha’a. Also known as The Vanilla Island for reasons you’ll appreciate as soon as you catch the sweet scent of its warm breezes. The snorkelling here is exceptional too, though Tikehau takes things up a notch further. Leave its picturesque white sands behind, and immerse yourself in a diver’s paradise. Populated by tropical fish, gentle black-tipped reef sharks, and the occasional manta ray. It’s also a smaller island, making it a good boutique choice for travellers seeking privacy as well as luxury. ⬛
