Bora Bora did not disappoint

We were hesitant to go to Bora Bora, considered the pearl of the South Pacific, with all the water bungalows at the lagoon, and therefore more touristy. But the thought to see manta rays was irresistible. Seeing these gentle huge rays, with wingspans over 12 ft (they can go up to 21 feet) and large forward-facing filter-feeding mouths was well worth it! Also snorkeling with eagle rays the next day was not to be missed. Combine that with the joyful company of our new Dutch friends Bertus and Jacqueline aboard s/v Queen Bee, who joined us snorkeling with reef sharks and manta rays, and happy hours! Glad we visited the endless lagoon of Bora Bora, and even got to fly the spinnaker to get there.

Our last week for me and Tessa, and we are back on the quiet island of Huahine. The water is gorgeous here too, and we for sure will enjoy our last days here.
