More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The morning begins with a warm trade wind and an open-air 4x4 that climbs toward the island’s high ridges, each lookout revealing another shade of lagoon blue. Mount Otemanu looms like a volcanic spine, and the truck drops you at bunkers and WWII cannons where the coral-ringed lagoon pushes light back toward the shore.

History
Bora Bora’s landscape is the eroded remnant of a volcanic island; during World War II it hosted American forces, leaving behind bunkers and cannon emplacements visible on land tours.
Conservation
Use reef-safe sunscreen, avoid touching coral, and follow guides’ instructions to minimize disturbance to fragile lagoon habitats.

Sun and Spray Protection
Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a wide-brim hat, and polarized sunglasses — sun reflects strongly off the lagoon and wind makes the sun feel harsher on the jet ski.
Hydration and Snacks
Carry a reusable water bottle; bottled water is provided but you’ll want fluids before and after the jet-ski portion.
Footwear for Transfers
Wear sandals or water shoes for quick transitions between boat, motu, and shore; the 4x4 portion is comfortable but rocky at viewpoints.
Age and Health Limits
Jet-ski drivers must be 16+ and participants 11+; not recommended for pregnant travelers or those with serious back or heart conditions.
Reef-safe sunscreen
Protects your skin and the lagoon’s coral—apply before boarding and reapply after swimming.
Quick-dry swimwear
Dries fast between jet-ski stops and is comfortable under life vests.
