Tahiti & Bora Bora

French Polynesia

"Overwater Bungalows Above the Most Beautiful Lagoon on Earth"

Bora Bora, the 'Pearl of the Pacific,' is perhaps the world's most coveted luxury travel destination. The dormant volcanic peak of Mount Otemanu rises dramatically from the center of the island, surrounded by a shimmering turquoise lagoon of incomparable beauty - so clear that you can see the coral gardens from your overwater bungalow. Snorkel with blacktip reef sharks, rays, and sea turtles in the lagoon's crystalline waters, take a sunset 4WD tour around the island, and experience a traditional Polynesian heiva cultural performance. The main island of Tahiti (Papeete) serves as the gateway and is itself a destination of volcanic beauty, black sand beaches, and extraordinary cuisine.
