Bora Bora Scuba Diving SharkThere are so many things to do and see in Bora Bora, that finding the best things to see and fitting it all in to your schedule can be quite the task. To help give you a few ideas of the most popular underwater attractions in Bora Bora, we have put this small list together for you.

Here are 3 underwater attractions you should check out while visiting Bora Bora:

  • The Bora Exotic Lagoonarium: This is the most popular attraction of tourists in Bora Bora. It is here you actually get into the water with a qualified underwater guide and get the opportunity to swim and interact with the creatures of the sea. You will find yourself swimming alongside dolphins, sharks, turtles, rays and other other exotic tropical fishes. This is the real deal, not to be confused with The Lagoonarium in Tahiti where you can not get in the water with the creatures.
  • The Aqua Safari: If you like the thought of scuba diving and would like to see the beautiful underwater world of Bora Bora, but you are not certified to scuba dive, don’t worry, we have a solution. The Aqua Safari has a large, yet comfortable, helmet that allows you to view the underwater surroundings without the need for scuba dive tanks or weight belts. This is an easy to use, non-compression option that is safe and fun for all ages.
  • The Aquascope: Another way to explore the amazing underwater world of Bora Bora is to take a ride in the unique Aquascope. This is a semi-submersible watercraft that cruises you around the various hot spots of the Bora Bora Lagoon while you are safely submerged below the water’s surface with amazing views of the sea life of the lagoon. This is great for those that want to stay dry in the comfort of a watercraft while getting the opportunity to everything available under the seas.

These three activities will provide something for everyone. You can choose one or choose them all depending on you schedule and desires while enjoying your Bora Bora vacation.
