 |
| This map of Bora Bora gives you an idea of the islands layout. The central larger island is where Mount Pahia and Mount Otemanu are. The larger central Bora Bora island is surrounded by an Atol which includes the lagoon and barrier reef - and smaller islands, such as Motu Piti A'u and Motu Tofari, are located around the lagoon on the coral reef. It is these smaller outer lying islands where much of the hotel resort accommodation and water bungalows are located, where you can get stunning views of the central island. |

The islands on Bora Bora
As you can see from the above photos - there are many smaller islands surrounding the central Bora Bora island- and below you can find out a bit more on each particular island and what resorts & beaches are found on them.
Looking towards the central Bora Bora island from Eden Beach, which is on Motu piti a'au, an island formation on the Atol that encircles the central Bora Bora island. It is this Atol coral reef which shelters the inner lagoon which you see above - giving perfect calm turquoise waters to dip into.Motu piti a'au
Motu piti a'au is an island formation on the Atol that encircles the central Bora Bora island. What makes Bora Bora special is the Atol that encircles the central main island. For those who don't know an Atol is a ring shaped coral reef that encircles a lagoon either forming a complete bit of land or partially covered land areas. On Motu Piti A'Au is one of the worlds best beaches - Eden Beach, along with some stunning resorts - such as the Inter Continental Bora Bora Resort & Thalasso Spa.
