Bora Bora is a popular tourist destination located in the Islands of Tahiti. The island was formed over seven million years ago by a volcano, of which 2 peaks still remain at its centre. Famed for its natural beauty, much of Bora Bora consists of picture-perfect white sandy beaches surrounded by a turquoise sea which hides a ring of coral reef. The island experiences a tropical monsoon climate, with high temperatures year-round ranging from approximately 22°C – 30°C and a wet season which lasts from November to April.

A Bora Bora holiday would not be complete without spending some time on the beautiful beaches that line the island's coast. The soft powdery sands are the perfect place to lay out on your beach towel soak up the sun before going for a dip in the lagoon to cool off. Snorkelling is also popular on Bora Bora’s beaches, as a variety of tropical fish live beneath the surface of the shimmering waters which you can see for yourself. To get a bird’s eye view of Bora Bora’s beauty, why not take a helicopter ride around the island? This is a unique and memorable experience that will make your holiday to Bora Bora even more magical. Visitors are sure to love a trip to the Turtle Centre Project, a non-profit established to care for sick or injured sea turtles. You can even help care for them yourself under the knowledgeable eye of the marine biologists who run the centre!

A holiday to Bora Bora is perfectly suited to couples. The myriad of resorts and overwater bunglaows provide the perfect place to spend a romantic couples getaway, and the variety of activities on offer provide plenty for couples to do together that will create memories that last a lifetime.
