Sunset Cruises | Flights to Bora Bora

Enjoying a sunset cruise of Bora Bora’s lagoon is definately a relaxing and enjoyable activity in French Polynesia.

This is what Bora Bora is all about… enjoying the peace and tranquility of the South Pacific from the water…

Typically, sunset cruises depart for the lagoon around 4:00 or so, in plenty of time to enjoy the spectacular colors of the setting sun.

You’ll sail or cruise around as you sip Tahitian cocktails and learn about the history and facts of the Tahitian islands, and in particular Bora Bora. 2 or 3 hours later, you’ll be back in your hotel room with a wonderful memory of Polynesia.
