To get to Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora, you’ll then need to take a domestic flight to Bora Bora Airport (a.k.a. Motu Mote Airport), which is located on a small islet just off the main island of Tahiti. Four Seasons staff will greet you at the airport and escort you to a boat transfer service. The 15-minute ride traverses a scenic lagoon directly to the resort.
What’s interesting about the location? What’s there to do in Bora Bora?
The resort is set on a private motu (islet) within Bora Bora’s famous lagoon. This location provides a sense of seclusion, intimacy and immersion in nature.
The crystal-clear lagoon is perfect for snorkeling, diving and paddleboarding. Explore coral gardens and encounter a variety of marine life, including rays and reef sharks (both of which are harmless provided guests exercise caution). For adventure seekers, jet skiing, parasailing and deep-sea fishing are popular options. You can hike through lush tropical forests, take a 4x4 safari tour or lounge on stunning beaches. Cultural experiences, like visiting local villages or attending traditional Polynesian dance performances, offer a deeper connection to the island's heritage.
