Bora Bora Travel

Located in French Polynesia, Bora Bora peaks out from beneath two monoliths of black rock in the center of the island.

a.k.a. Tahiti, this South Pacific island is the epitome of paradise.

The crystal blue waters of the lagoon sport water skiing, windsurfing and scuba diving... unless you'd just rather soak up the rays. That's allowed.

Play with the sea creatures in the Lagoonarium. Yes, you can actually touch them! Have your picture taken with turtles, sting rays, fish, even a dolphin or a shark!

Scope out the bright yellow Aquascope, lodged off shore for over 15 years. An invention by a crewman who worked with Jacques Cousteau, it lets you see underwater and watch the tropical fish dance through the clear glistening waters.

"Circle Island tour" by the lagoon in a cruiser or a catamaran, or by land route in a minibus, scooter or car.

See the "Guns of Bora Bora", seven WWII cannons protruding form the lush tropical landscapes. Finding all of them is like a treasure hunt, but you can get hints form a guide.

Or head back in time and walk among the ancient Maraes clearly visible from the road. Let a tour guide explain the history of these amazing rock piles sprinkled all over the Polynesian islands.

Don't leave without visiting the Galerie D'Art Alain Linda, the oldest art gallery on the island famous for its offering of native artists' works.

Then, catch a Tahitian dance show and eat in the fine seafood restaurants.

Bora Bora... not boring!!
