Book Bora Bora hotels

People like to describe certain destinations as “paradise”. Most of the time they’re exaggerating…unless they’re talking about a little isle with a double name in the Society Islands. One visit here and you’ll understand all that chatter about paradise.

Go snorkelling in water more turquoise than your grandmother’s jewellery. Climb a mountain that offers gorgeous views of the South Pacific. Browse lastminute.co.nz’s best offers on Bora Bora package deals and discover why Captain James Cook fell in love with this little set of islands.

Things to Do in Bora Bora

When you arrive at this tropical archipelago, try to wrap your head around the beauty of it. After processing the scenery, go snorkelling in the crystal clear waters of the lagoon. You’ll come face to face with moray eels, blacktip reef sharks and green sea turtles. If you book Bora Bora accommodation over the water you can just look through your floor and see some of these aquatic critters.

After you’re done playing with Nemo and the gang, explore the rest of the lagoon on a jet ski tour. Prefer to stay dry? Circle the main island and visit other isles like Motu Krisu, Tevairoa and To’opua. Some of the smaller ones are uninhabited, and their isolated beaches are perfect for picnics. Just be sure to bring a six-pack of Hinano with you.

Getting to & Around Bora Bora

Your holiday will begin when you land at Bora Bora Airport (BOB), located on the islet of Motu Mute. The hotels in Bora Bora are scattered about several nearby islands and depending on where you’re staying, you’ll have to take a short boat ride to your room. There are a few taxis and one bus line that will get you around on the main island.
