Things To Do On Bora Bora Island

Bora Bora, one of the most visited and most beautiful islands on Earth, still astounds tourists and maintains its natural splendor despite the millions of people coming annually.

In case you are wondering, here is Bora Bora on the world map--here you can get an idea of the natural wonders in store for you in both land and at sea. Take a look at this list of what the island can offer.

1. Shark and Ray Snorkel Safari

You would not get the full Bora Bora experience if you would not try to snorkel and it would be extra special if you do it with sharks and sting rays. The locals and tour guides would not be recommending this activity if it poses danger for the tourists. Tour guides also allow them to feed the sharks. Its strikingly clear blue water makes snorkeling a more appealing water sports activity.

2. Bora Bora Glass Bottom Boat Tour

If you don't want to get wet but still are dying to see what is inside Bora Bora's clear blue water, the Glass Bottom Tour is for you. Tourists will be transported by a roofed boat with a glass bottom to the island's famous coral gardens. Because of the transparent water, passengers can see beautiful corals and hundreds of brightly colored sea animals just by looking below.

3. Bora Bora Aqua Safari With Helmet

If you can't get enough with the seawater and the creature living below, have another dunk by trying out their Aqua Safari with Helmet. You don't have to bother about breathing and just enjoy the thriving wildlife of the sea in real time.

4. Explore Mount Otemanu

Bora Bora is not just about snorkeling but it also offers the best land excursion by going on a hike or riding a jeep to Mount Otemanu's summit. The peak gives tourists a breath taking view of the ocean especially when the sun is high and the sky is clear of clouds.

5. Sunset Cruise and Star Tour

End the day by watching the amazing sunset on a cruise and listening to stories of your local tour guide about how the ancient Polynesians interpreted stars to navigate the sea.
