How to Get to Bora Bora

When planning a trip to The Islands of Tahiti, most travel planning goes into figuring out the best way to get to the destination, imagining what it will be like to hike Mount Otemanu or lay on Matira Beach. To guarantee a stress-free trip, you need to also think about transportation options when you arrive at your desired destination. Learn how to get to the island of Bora Bora once you arrive in French Polynesia and the best ways to get around Bora Bora. Plan your transportation in the island of Bora Bora with this guide to help you get to and around the island. 

Getting Around Bora Bora

The airport, built on a beautiful motu, is accessible only by a short ferry ride from the port village of Vaitape. Resort transport is either by private motorboat from the airport operated by most of the luxury resorts or by shuttle from Vaitape. Also, helicopter transfer is available from select hotels and the Bora Bora airport for reserved guests of Le Taha’a Island Resort & Spa. Transport to your resort should be arranged in advance by your Preferred Travel Company or resort. Bora Bora has a few taxis and operates the public transit system, Le Truck.
