With over 100 countries to explore around the world, finding the one place that will take your breath away often seems impossible — that is until you arrive on the shores of the South Pacific paradise known as Bora Bora. After all, there’s a reason the French Polynesian island consistently makes it to the top of traveler’s bucket list.
From the moment you arrive by plane you’re met with a stunning aerial view filled with turquoise blue waters, lush green rainforests, towering mountain peaks and overwater bungalows that look straight out of a travel magazine. On the ground, you can expect to dive, snorkel, parasail, hike, ATV ride or simply do nothing at all. Whatever you desire, Bora Bora can make a reality — it truly is paradise found.
One traveler that indulged in the picture-perfect dream is travelista @travelirie, who spent a few days on the island living her best life before jetting off to New Zealand.
