Where to stay in Bora Bora

Matira Beach is one of the Pacific's finest public beaches. The lagoon is world-class for snorkelling with blacktip reef sharks, stingrays and sea turtles in crystal-clear warm water. Motu Tapu and the Coral Garden are bucket-list snorkel spots. Bora Bora is the world's most famous honeymoon destination. Four Seasons, St Regis and Intercontinental Thalasso Spa offer overwater villas with private pools, butler service and unobstructed Mount Otemanu views for the ultimate romantic escape. Shark and ray feeding tours, 4WD safari circuits, paddleboarding and outrigger canoeing are the island's signature activities. The lagoon's extraordinary clarity makes every water activity a visual highlight. Sunset cruises are unforgettable. The outer reef offers excellent wall dives with visibility of 20-30 m. Hammerhead sharks, Napoleon wrasse and eagle rays are regularly spotted. The inner lagoon's shallow coral gardens are ideal for beginner divers and snorkellers of all ages.
