Bora Bora French Polynesia

Our last island to visit in French Polynesia was Bora Bora which is located about 160 miles north west of Tahiti.  Bora Bora is very similar to Moorea in terms of beauty but much smaller with a population of about 9,000 people.  This island is unique in that it is almost completely surrounded by a tall reef and between the main island and the reef are many small islands called motu's.  Many of the fancy hotels are located on these small motu’s which can only be reached by water taxi.

Like Moorea the ocean bottom is covered in white sand

There are lots of road side stands selling local fruit

Yes they still have phone booths…
