BORA BORA HONEYMOONS

                               
Bora Bora is the picture every bride dreams of for a destination wedding or the honeymoon of a lifetime in paradise. The island of Bora Bora is synonymous with romance. The Atoll of Bora Bora rises from the 50 shades of blue of the deep water up through the softer hues of the lagoon and into the air that surrounds the island. The magic and peace are palpable. Just a breath of the clear fresh air and a peak into the clear waters, as if you were peering into the largest aquarium in the world. The nights in Bora Bora are adorned with the clearest of skies making the moon amazingly bright and crystal clear. Bora Bora is a brief 50-minute flight from The Islands of Tahiti or Moorea. Bora Bora, with a lagoon of aquamarine and turquoise waters resembling an artist’s palette of bright blues and greens, will make you feel love at first sight. Romantics and honeymooners from around the world appreciate Bora Bora, where the lush tropical slopes and valleys of Mount Otemanu blossom with hibiscus, while palm-covered motu circle the illuminated lagoon. 

The perfect white-sand Bora Bora beaches are an ideal setting for the most amazing wedding you can imagine. The white sand beaches leading to Matira Point give way to baby blue aquamarine waters where tropical-colored fish animate the coral gardens and giant manta rays glide leisurely past. This south pacific island could easily be defined as the center of the romantic universe, where luxury resorts and spas dot the island with overwater bungalows, thatched-roof villas, and a fabled ambiance. Simply put, Bora Bora is the most beautiful island in the world.

“Bora Bora is located on a dormant volcano island, set on the most beautiful and crystal-clear lagoons in the world, colored in a million shades of blue. Known for gorgeous luxury resorts and numerous adventurous activities, it is one of the northwestern islands that make up The Islands of Tahiti. The vast motu of Bora Bora’s white-sand beaches lined with coconut trees encircle the emerald lagoon that’s populated with myriad fish and multi-colored corals. The tallest point is the breathtaking Mount Otemanu at Bora Bora’s center. It’s easy to understand why this little 15 square mile island is revered as one of the most intimate and idyllic wedding and honeymoon vacation destinations. Every 50 minutes, flights to Bora Bora from Papeete and Moorea are available through Air Tahiti for those looking to island-hop. (www.tahititourism.com)

Bora Bora’s lagoon is an underwater world that hosts manta rays, sharks, gentle Napoleon wrasses, and other marine life which will welcome you while scuba diving, helmet diving or viewing from a glass-bottom boat. There are many Bora Bora activities and opportunities to explore the lagoon, the motu, and the ocean. Options include – but aren’t limited to – fishing, cruises, jet skiing, kiteboarding, paddle boarding, outrigger canoe rides, kayaking, island tours and more. Imagine catching a delicious tuna for dinner, paddling on a stand-up paddleboard to a private motu, having a decadent and fresh seafood lunch waterside, or snorkeling up-close and personal with hundreds of colorful marine animals. Those who love an adrenaline rush can enjoy wakeboarding or tubing on the crystal waters, circling the coastline on a jet ski, or viewing the lagoon from a parasail, while those who love to lounge have a cocktail at the renowned Bloody Mary’s, or enjoy appetizers on a sunset cruise. So don’t forget about taking a four-wheeler, going for a hike or taking it all in from the air in an unforgettable helicopter tour. (www.tahititourism.com)
