Bora Bora is an island of French Polynesia in the South Pacific, under the purview of France. The claim in the title of being the world's most beautiful was made by the late novelist James Michener. Although Michener's view was before developers put their stamp of commercial clutter on the island, Bora Bora's natural beauty remains intact.
Bora Bora is packed with super luxurious options for accommodations. Several of the world's finest hotel brands are well represented, led by Four Seasons and its Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora. Opened in 2008, the resort is akin to paradise according to its guests. InterContinental, St. Regis, Hilton, Le Meridien and Sofitel operate premier properties, as do independent hoteliers.
Bora Bora's round-island road is less than 20 miles long so many visitors travel the length of the road by bicycle, scooter or car. The best place for departure is the wharf in Vaitape on the west coast, the island's main town. Along the way, spectacular views of Mount Pahia and Mount Otemanu, Bora Bora's two extinct volcanoes, emerge. An option for seeing more of Bora Bora is taking a guided sightseeing tour. Otemanu Tours, conducted in an open-air le truck, expose tourists to additional sights not visible from the road.
Bora Bora's allure is enhanced by a breathtakingly-colorful lagoon, whose turquoise-blue turns a variety of shades throughout the day, and by the barrier reef that protects it. Part and parcel with the island's beauty are the activities that the water around it make possible. For people seeking a beach, Matira Beach with its secluded shores, at the island's south end, is a dazzling one.
Scuba diving in Bora Bora is just about everywhere. The major resorts all offer an opportunity to get close to numerous species of tropical fish, colorful sea crustaceans and brilliant corals. The manta rays are the stars of the show. The island's largest diving centers are TOPdive Bora Bora, Blue Nui Dive Center, DiveEasy and Bora Diving Center.
Moana Adventure Tours offers multiple options for fun on the island's emerald lagoon. Reef Discovery affords customers a chance to snorkel in the preserved coral gardens of the lagoon. Teremoana Tours provides outrigger canoes for a ride around the lagoon, including a shark feeding demonstration. And at the Lagoonarium, visitors can actually swim with the sharks...as well as the manta rays, turtles, dolphins and tropical fishes.
Complementing its first-class hotels, this paradise has a plethora of fine restaurants. La Villa Mahana in Povai Bay on the island's southeast side is thought by many to be the best, with its fabulous French food, wine and romantic ambience. Kaina Hut north of Taititi Point near the south end wins accolades as the island's best choice for seafood. Bora Bora offers an additional array of excellent restaurant options serving French and other cuisines.
