Bora Bora
You see this resort every time you log into Pinterest or
flipping through travel magazines. This place is absolutely stunning and
breathtaking in every way. Living corridors extends out over turquoise waters and
nestled amongst palm trees and bright tropical flowers.
Breakfast by Canoe- start each day with an
unforgettable breakfast brought to the private balcony of your overwater
bungalow or villa by an outrigger canoe. Often bedecked in flowers, the canoe
carries the staff who serve fresh fruits, pastries, and juices while the
surrounding waters begin welcoming the rising South Pacific sun.
Sailing- Bora Bora’s lagoon is a very popular
anchorage for both round-the-world and avid vacation sailors. If chartering
your own sailboat in Raiatea, Tahiti, or Moorea, the deep, wide pass and
calming lagoon is a natural stop. You can also rent a Hobie Cat in Bora Boar or
take a half-day or sunset cruse around the lagoon on a giant catamaran,
complete with music.
Diving- because of the abundance of large marine
life, diving within the waters of the most beautiful lagoon in the world is on
many divers “must do” list. During the dives, it is common to be joined by
legions of gigantic manta rays gliding gracefully within arm’s reach while
schools of reef sharks parade by.
U.S. Virgin Islands
Activities:
Boat Rental- rent a boat, power or sail, and plan
your own itinerary; stop at a few snorkeling spots, have a nice picnic on a
deserted beach or a fun family trop to a neighboring island. Boats come
provided with coolers and food and drinks. Most rental companies require that
you have navigation experience. However, you can hire a captain for an extra
fee.
Snorkeling-
From the new, never snorkeled before to seasoned snorkelers
there is something for everyone. Rock coast lines, near shore reefs, off shore
cays and sunken items like ships and planes provide beautiful and varied
snorkeling opportunities. View gorgeous underwater gardens of coral and visit
with the resident; turtles, rays, octopuses, moray eels and an abundance of
fish large and small.
