Unless you have no other choice, save your shopping for Tahiti. If you must do some shopping in Bora Bora, head to Vaitape — where you can at least visit a few shops before making a decision. There are plenty of black pearl shops in the village. The place looks awesome, being surrounded by nature really is the best feeling, the lodging also looks cozy and clean, also it looks like a lot of activities can be done here, I hope I could go there some day. The diving in Bora Bora is wonderful!

Is Bora Bora Worth Visiting? Where To Stay In Bora Bora This will make or break your experience in Bora Bora because of the expectations and fantasies that come with visiting this island.

Money Using a credit card for pretty much everything is not a problem in Bora Bora. Bora Bora Average Costs Bora Bora does come with a premium so do not expect a great amount of value for money. Eating Bora Bora is not the kind of place for doing your own cooking. I can think of two things to watch out specific to Bora Bora: Theft : not common but it happens. Book your accommodation on the main island. This option is much cheaper than the resorts on the outer motus. Use a bicycle to get around the main island.
Eating in high-end restaurants? Defer scuba diving to other islands. Many of the resorts are located on their own private motus islets within Bora Bora. Le Meridien where the majority of these photos were taken , St. Regis , the Four Seasons , or the Conrad are all worth looking into as the most popular 5-star options on the island, or Le Moana for the best affordable luxury option. Most resorts offer full-board or half-board options, so your choices are all inclusive Bora Bora resorts, partially inclusive resorts where they cover half the meals, or non-inclusive resorts where all food and beverages are at extra cost.
While Bora Bora offers warm, tropical weather year-round, there are periods of heavy rain. High season months where tourism is at its peak runs from May through October. For Bora Bora and in general while traveling, the best months to go are just before the high season April or just after November.
Traveling to Bora Bora during early-mid December can also be a good time because costs are lower, though it also a gamble because there are possibilities of rain. When it does rain, it pours for a few minutes and then typically stops for long periods of sunshine, which still makes for a great experience if you are happy with this kind of trade-off. Cruises to Bora Bora do exist, however you miss out on staying in an overwater bungalow.
Or you can charter your own boat and cruise the French Polynesian islands by yourself. You are still able to stay in bungalows there, though it may not be as luxurious of an experience. That said, you must first fly into Tahiti to reach the other islands in French Polynesia, so it is worth checking out and spending a night or two, especially if your flight arrives in the evening.
A million times YES! In all honesty, Bora Bora is worth every penny for it is one of the most beautiful places on earth. The overwater bungalow experience is something every traveler should have, and despite the cost the memories made will surely be cherished forever. If you are visiting Bora Bora only, then 5 or 6 nights is plenty of time. Hi, I am looking to purchase a wedding shower gift. Is there anything that would give me a list of island Bora Bora excursions and prices?
