Bora Bora Island Activities

 

Shark Feeding
No visit to Bora Bora is complete without this exhilarating, unforgettable experience. Taken to the outer reef, you don snorkel and flippers, slip into the water (with just a touch of trepidation!) and watch Tahitian divers hand feed back-tip sharks right before your eyes. Half day - from $94 per person

Helicopter Sightseeing
Soar like a bird over Bora Boras multi-colored lagoon and lushly forested interior. Get a closer look at misty Mount Otemanu and see why no one has ever been able to climb to the top of this fabulous basalt obelisk. 30 minutes - from $380 per person

Jeep Safari
Head off the beaten track on this daredevil, four-wheel drive adventure. Climb to dizzying heights and discover sacred sites in Bora Boras virgin mountain interior. Half day - from $79 per person

Scuba Diving
Graceful manta ray and hundreds of neon-bright reef fish greet you as you descent into the lagoon, marveling at its natural beauty and abundant sealife. One tank dive - from $75 per person

Rental Car
Its easy to get around Bora Bora on its 20-mile circle-island road. You'll pass villages and archaeological sites, with wildflowers, ferns and giant palms bordering the route. 4-hour-rate - $125 per car

Catamaran Charter
Set Sail for a carefree afternoon aboard the deluxe, 50 ft. TaraVana. Or escape for two days, giving yourself over to the trade winds, fishing, or just drifting along in search of the perfect motu. Exceptionally stable, a catamaran sail is heaven on water, for both salty seadogs and landlubbers alike.
Half day charter - $900. Overnight charter - $1,800.

Private Picnic - Etienne’s Tour, Patrick’s, or Keishi Tour will arrange these outings. I highly recommend Keishi (ask for Pierrot, Phone 79 26 56). He sets up a table in the lagoon water next to a private Motu. Lunch features Lobster, Crab, Steak, Chicken, Fruit and Champagne. Snorkeling around the Island, Shark and Ray Feeding, Manta Ray viewing and whatever else your heart desires. These run around $500.00 for two, plus $100.00 for each additional person. The operator will usually pick you up at your hotel around 9:30am and drop you off at 3:00pm.
Patrick’s tour is also very nice. He serves a traditional Tahitian feast of foods cooked in an ahima'a (underground oven). Meals consist of roast pig, breadfruit, plantains, taro leaves, and the ever present poisson cru. Patrick is from Bora Bora and is a gracious host.

HorseBack Riding - Ranch Reva Reva, on private Motu for Beach and interior ride.

Bora Bora Lagoonarium - next to Le Meridian, swim with the sharks and many other sea creatures, can also purchase a movie of you swimming with the Sharks.

Sunset Cocktail Cruise - aboard the “Taravana” with Captain Richard, sails from many of the hotels, can be booked through your hotel.

Boat rentals – based at Matira Beach near Le Matai, small aluminum boats with 6 hp - no permit required, larger boat (15 hp) requires a boat license. Also a taxi service to and/or from any place on the Island (Phone (689) 67.60.61 ). Renting a small boat is a great way to see the lagoon at your own pace. You can rent 4 hours or day. But watch for the shallow coral heads.

Parasailing – Bora Bora Parasailing, offers single and double person rides, no age limit. Contact Bora Bora Tel/ Fax: (689) 67 70 34 , cell: 78 27 10

JetSki: Milki Miki Tours - leave everyday at 10:00 am and 2:00 pm from Matira. Two hour tours are about $220.00 US dollars. You will be with a guide.
