Bora Bora Airport
Also known as Motu Mute Airport, thanks to its location on the island of Motu Mute, Bora Bora Airport has been the main gateway to the islands since it was first opened for commercial flights back in 1958. As it’s located on an outlying islet, a boat transfer is necessary to reach the main island and other destinations in Bora Bora.
The only airline that flies to Bora Bora Airport is Air Tahiti. The national carrier connects the island group with other destinations in the archipelago including Papeete, the capital of French Polynesia.
Which Airlines Fly to Bora Bora?
Although only Air Tahiti flies to Bora Bora a number of airlines offer connecting services linking the UK with the archipelago.
These include:
How to Get Around Bora Bora
Thanks to Bora Bora’s unique geographic layout - the centre of the island is made up of an extinct volcano - the main form of transport in the archipelago is boat. Both public ferries and private shuttles connect various parts of Bora Bora, making it easy to get out and explore.
If you’re staying on the main island you can also useLe Truck, Bora Bora’s public transport system, or hire a bike or a scooter for the duration of your stay. If you do decide to rent a bike of a scooter, you’ll find the roads are relatively quiet and, as long as you avoid the rugged interior, pretty flat.
Must-See Attractions in Bora Bora
The most prominent attraction in Bora Bora is Mount Otemanu. One of the two ancient volcanoes that make up the island, the peak rises to 2,400 feet above sea level. If you’re feeling energetic, you can hike to the top of the mountain for spectacular views of the surrounding area. If that sounds a little too much like hard work, book a 4x4 tour of the volcano or take in views of the peak from a cruise on the lagoon.
Tips for Travelling in Bora Bora
British citizens don’t need a visa to enter French Polynesia, however you should check that your passport is valid for the duration of your stay. A yellow fever certificate may be required: make sure you check before you travel.
