Coast: Bora Bora

Bora Bora is perhaps the most famous island in French Polynesia. Its geographical structure is unique: an extinct volcano in the center, Mount Otemanu, surrounded by a lagoon of crystal clear waters protected by a coral reef and small islets called 'motus'. It is the luxury destination par excellence, pioneer in the concept of overwater bungalows. The island offers a perfect combination of absolute relaxation at world-class resorts and nature adventures, from swimming with manta rays and blacktip sharks to exploring the jungle hinterland in 4x4 vehicles. Its Polynesian culture, marked by hospitality, dance and black pearl craftsmanship, adds a unique depth to its incomparable scenic beauty.
