Excursion Blue lagoon & motu picnic tour at Bora Bora
Cruise line: SilverseaDifficulty:
Discover the exquisite beauty of Bora Bora's Blue Lagoon, considered to be one of the world's most beautiful lagoon, during this snorkelling adventure and motu picnic outing.
Depart the pier aboard a private lagoon boat for a scenic cruise across Bora Bora's Blue Lagoon. The lagoon is three times larger than the island's land mass and offers an incomparable range of azure and turquoise colours.
Your cruise proceeds along the island's coast, giving you superb views of Bora Bora's mountains. At a spot near the barrier reef, you can observe an unusual spectacle as the boat crew attracts harmless blacktip reef sharks and friendly rays. The show can be observed from the boat.
Leaving the reef area, your cruise continues on to a private coral atoll, or motu, for a picnic-style lunch of local fare, followed by an opportunity to relax and unwind amidst this beautiful South Seas setting. After lunch, you can swim and snorkel in the turquoise waters and watch a pareo-tying demonstration.
Your blue lagoon and motu picnic concludes with the boat ride back to the tender pier.
