Bora Bora is the pinnacle of luxury island travel — the destination that invented the overwater bungalow concept and reset global expectations of what a beach holiday could be. The lagoon of Bora Bora, enclosed within a coral reef with the volcanic peak of Mount Otemanu rising 727 metres from its centre, is widely considered the most beautiful body of water on Earth.
The colours of the lagoon shift constantly through the day — aquamarine to electric turquoise to deep sapphire — and from the deck of your private overwater bungalow you can watch this change while descending directly into warm water to snorkel among black-tipped reef sharks, spotted eagle rays and enormous schools of fish in a natural aquarium of extraordinary clarity. EternalMiles Bora Bora packages from India are crafted for travellers who want nothing less than the world's most beautiful place — handled perfectly from India to the South Pacific and back.
