Description
Summary:The Society Islands of French Polynesia are made up of the Windward Islands, where Tahiti is situated, and the Leeward Islands, which are a group of islands west of the Windward Isles; it is here where you find one of the world's most famous islands, Bora Bora, which is also known as "The Marvelous Island." In this program we discover why. Bora Bora is a relatively small island and its population is less than 10,000; however, what it lacks in size and numbers, it makes up for in almost indescribable beauty. Encircled by a sheltering necklace of pearl white, sandy beaches, the main island sits like a jewel in the center of a multi-colored lagoon; it is surrounded by offshore islets inside a protective necklace of coral. And thanks to the wonderful cinematography of this program, our sailboat ride here offers viewers a visual experience they never forget.
