This South Sea adventure is what dreams are made of and it is calling your name. BORA BORA, one of 118 islands in Tahiti, is a yacht lovers paradise. Exotic days and romantic nights fill your soul and tingle your senses while cruising these waters.
Bora Bora is a 12 square mile island group in the western part of the Society Islands of French Polynesia in the Pacific Ocean. The main island of Bora Bora is surrounded by a crystal-clear lagoon and lively barrier reef. The island of Bora Bora is a marvelous, fertile world of sundrenched landscapes that enhance the backdrop of your yacht excursion and all your local activities. The center of the island is home to the remnants of an extinct volcano that now forms the two famous peaks of Mount Pahia and Mount Otemanu. The highest point of Mount Otemanu reaches 2,385 feet. Other islands of the Society Islands along include Moorea, Taha’a, Maupiti and many more. Each island is surrounded by bright blue lagoons and offers lush green vegetation.
The island is celebrated for its lush tropical slopes and valleys of Mount Otomanu. The blossoms of hibiscus add to the visual splendor as palm-covered motu, the Polynesian word for small islands, line the illuminated lagoon like a piece of fine jewelry. In ancient times, Bora Bora was called “Pora pora mai te pora”, meaning “created by the gods” in the local Tahitian dialect. The smell of the Tahitian flower tiare lingers in the air, relaxing your soul. In Bora Bora, the delicate white sand beaches surround the island in every direction as they give way to cerulean waters filled with radiant fish, coral gardens and giant manta rays gliding effortlessly through the warm waters.
