NOMADE YACHTING BY BORA BORA CRUISES *****
Tu Moana & Ti'a Moana (in alliance with Orient-Express)
Romantic, Lazy, Adventurous, Breathtaking… The options are endless. It is said that there is no other place on earth that possesses the tropical warmth and exotic colours of the lagoon and the dreamy beauty of the island structures. This vacation experience is one that fulfils and tantalises all the body’s senses.
An intimate voyage of discovery through French Polynesia’s Leeward Islands, in a unique and exotic manner. An experience outside the usual tourists clichés, where the senses are indulged with colour, emotion and pleasure. The opportunity to create memories that will last forever through a combination of originality, style and destination. The decadence of a fine setting for breakfast – feet in the warm lagoon waters, the magic of a cinema in a locale under the stars, amidst the palms and upon the sand of a deserted islet, the discovery of natural beauty whilst paddling a kayak up a tropical river, or the hedonistic pleasure of time spent in a Jacuzzi watching as the blues of the lagoon and the sky effortlessly merge together….
Options
Canter along the beach on horseback, chase Mahi Mahi with a local fisherman, trek a verdant valley to a waterfall, the experiences are real, exclusive and hand selected by Bora Bora cruises.
