Bora Bora is the South Pacific of your dreams. This small island in French Polynesia, only about 6 miles long and 2 miles wide, rises to a dramatic volcanic peak covered in green jungle, all surrounded by a lagoon in every shade of blue. James Michener, author of Tales of the South Pacific, considered it the most beautiful island in the world, and the view as you fly in might convince you he was right. Explorers dubbed it the Pearl of the Pacific.

This is the very definition of a tropical escape, with luxurious resorts, warm water, sunshine and an unhurried pace. Snorkel alongside manta rays and reef sharks, dive the coral gardens, browse the shops and markets in Vaitape, hike Mount Pahia and end each day watching the sunset from the deck of your overwater bungalow, the experience Bora Bora made famous.

Bora Bora is a splurge, so it pays to plan wisely. I'll help you choose the right resort and bungalow, find the best value and package it with Tahiti or Moorea for an unforgettable honeymoon or milestone trip.
