Bora Bora trip planner

There's a reason why many consider Bora Bora the most romantic island in the world. Sandy "motus" (islets) surround an azure lagoon, and a forest-clad mountain rises from the island's center. Piers of iconic overwater bungalows stretch out into the lagoon, soothing you to sleep with the sound of gently lapping waves. But you don't have to be a canoodling couple to enjoy Bora Bora: plenty of adventures await travelers of all kinds. The lush tropical slopes and valleys full of hibiscus blossom beg to be explored, as do the coral reefs, filled with colorful life. Head out on the surf with thrilling water sports or a leisurely cruise, and browse boutique shops selling Tahitian pearls, perfumes and oils, and hand-carved wooden sculptures. Our French Polynesia travel route builder app allows you to plan your trip to Bora Bora and a wealth of other destinations big and small.
