Overview

A night in Tahiti to absorb the flight, then eight over the Bora Bora lagoon with Mount Otemanu in the window. Nobody should fly this far for less.

Bora Bora is a genuinely long journey from Asia or the Gulf, and the mistake is to arrive exhausted and leave in five nights. This builds in a Papeete night on the way in, then puts you on the lagoon long enough for the view to stop being a photograph. The Otemanu sightline from Motu Tehotu is among the best on the water.

Day by day

A stay chosen with youDay 1 · 1 night

Day 1A night in Papeete

This is the longest flight of the six destinations. A night in Tahiti on the way in means Bora Bora starts rested rather than jet-lagged. Where you stay is chosen with you.

Day 2Domestic flight, then the boat

Fifty minutes to Bora Bora, then the resort boat from the airport motu. Four Seasons sits on Motu Tehotu with one of the best Otemanu sightlines on the water.

Day 3The lagoon

A private tour with rays and blacktip reef sharks. The lagoon is the destination here and the island is the backdrop to it.

Day 4Ruahatu

The resort's own sanctuary — a sheltered inner lagoon with coral grafting, water sculptures and a resident marine biologist, snorkellable at your own pace.

Day 5Coral restoration

A session with the marine team, grafting fragments onto the sanctuary frames.

Day 6A motu picnic

Out to an outer-reef islet with lunch. The reef side is rougher water and a different island entirely.

Day 7Otemanu

The mountain is the view from every deck; this is the day to stop photographing it and swim instead. Te Mahana's overwater treatment room faces it, with a tub outside.

Day 8The coral gardens

Shallow enough to stand in, and off the resort rather than out at the pass. Vaimiti is overwater and does the sunset.

Day 9A day with nothing in it

Nine nights on one lagoon is the point of this routing rather than a gap in it. Kayak the motu, or do not leave the deck.

Day 10The last full day

Sunset Restaurant faces west over the water, which is the right place to end it. Arii Moana does the evening properly if you would rather.

Day 11Boat, then out through Papeete

The connection home is long. We build the day around it rather than against it.

Good to know

  • This is the longest flight of the six destinations from Asia or the Gulf — build in a Tahiti night.
  • It is genuinely expensive, and the island has limited non-resort dining.
  • Combine it with Moorea or Taha'a; almost nobody flies this far for one island.
