Beset by sandy islets and a blue lagoon of coral reefs, Bora Bora is a small island in French Polynesia. This destination is popular for scuba diving, snorkelling, and luxury resorts. At the centre of Bora Bora, you can find Mount Otemanu and Mount Pahia, the peaks of an extinct volcano. The island is dotted with lush coconut trees, and locals widely depend on the produce obtained from the sea. Apart from pristine sea-oriented tourist attractions, Bora Bora also has World War II cannons worth taking a look at. You can also feed the non-dangerous sharks and rays in the enclosed waters. The best way to explore the area is by biking around or renting a car since there is no public transportation. After engaging in all these activities, retreat to a worthwhile stay.
