Experience a Great Island Adventure: BORA BORA






Experience a Great Island Adventure: BORA BORA



Bora Bora is an island in the Leeward group of the Society Islands of
French Polynesia, an overseas collectivity of France in the Pacific
Ocean. The island, located about 230 km (140 mi) northwest of Papeete,
is surrounded by a lagoon and a barrier reef. In the centre of the
island are the remnants of an extinct volcano rising to two peaks, Mount
Pahia and Mount Otemanu, the highest point at 727 m (2,385 ft).


Bora Bora is a major international tourist destination, famous for its
aqua-centric luxury resorts. The major settlement, Vaitape is on the
western side of the main island, opposite the main channel into the
lagoon. Produce of the island is mostly limited to what can be obtained
from the sea and the plentiful coconut trees, which were historically of
economic importance for copra. According to a census performed in 2008,
the permanent population of Bora Bora is 8,880.
