    #borabora

    June 1, 2017 in French Polynesia ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C

    The last island we visited before heading back to Tahiti was Borabora. A big blue lagoon, a beautiful spot on earth. If you happen to go there, skip Bora and go rather to Moapiti. As beautiful and a lot cheaper. I booked a shark and ray boat tour together with Manu and Barbara. First we stopped at a coral garden where we could snorkel, then there was some feeding of rays. I don't really like those kind of things so I talked more with some local tour guides. Then came the highlight with the boat driver finding a manta ray. We could swim with this amazing animal for more then 30min. Magic. We had lunch on a Motu, a small island owned by a hotel and rented by the Aranui for the day. We had a delicious meal there on the beach as you expect it in the catalogue. We stayed the afternoon on the island, snorkeling, swimming and chatting, taking the last boat to the Aranui with the crew and having some Ukulele-concert accompaning us. The sunset was stunning and so the last day on the Aranui was over very quicklyRead more
