Bora Bora Holidays

It’s easy to see why Bora Bora is one of the most visited and loved islands Legend has it that Bora Bora was the first Polynesian island to be discovered. Perfect for both active travellers and those who prefer to relax on the beach, Bora Bora holiday packages offer a variety of choices for each and every discerning guest. Embark on a hiking tour up the mountains, book a boat tour to view tropical fish and colourful coral reefs, or don your snorkelling gear to get up close to the island’s nature. Keen walkers will love the guided tours through the forests to the summit of Mount Pahia, which offers unrivalled views over the island’s lagoon and awe-inspiring twin peak, Mount Otemanu. Why not hire a scooter for an intimate excursion for two to see Bora Bora’s waterfalls? Enjoy freshly-picked local tropical fruits while you stop for a break.
Bora Bora holidays: the ultimate romantic retreat
Exploring the island’s marine life is a must for nature lovers, with fantastic opportunities to get up close to huge manta rays and reef sharks when you dive or snorkel on your Bora Bora honeymoon.

“Don't be fooled into thinking there isn't anything to do in Bora Bora - there is a lot of adventure. Opt for a 4x4 tour through the forest, hike Mount Pahia and Mount Otemanu, discover waterfalls, head to the main village for markets, get on board a boat or jet ski, sail in a catamaran and experience a submarine dive”.
