Before you roll down to Matira Point you have a great view of one of those motu getaways.
Whatever you think of the Sofitel hotel chain, they just have spectacular resorts.
This one is the Sofitel Motu Coralia.
Better you do not ask me for the tariffs… ;-)
The best tip I can give you: Start saving for your stay!

As you go around Bora Bora by boat, you will see many different smaller islands, or as the Tahitians call them, Motus. Most of these Motus are considered private islands, but I found it interesting that on a public tour, we visited the Bora Bora Nui's "private island" with several of the other resorts guests. I guess there is a very loose interpretation of what is considered private there! Anyway, these islands are great for a picnic, cookout, beach time or just sunning away from the resort atmosphere :)

You would expect to be dropped off by boat at the shore--but instead the boat leaves you in the lagoon, where you swim to shore. This is the fun part, because a strong current pulls you along the reef, where you see amazing sea life. I found myself trying to grasp a rock so I could slow down and admire the beauty!
When you arrive at the motu(small island) your picnic consists of local food: grilled fish and Poisson Cru, raw tuna marinated in lime juice and coconut milk.
