French Polynesia · Ships call at Bora Bora, French Polynesia
Bora Bora's volcanic peak, Mount Otemanu, rises over a lagoon ringed by a barrier reef that keeps the water calm, shallow, and bright turquoise. Small-ship lines like Paul Gauguin and Windstar usually overnight here instead of making a single day call. That extra time is what makes room for snorkeling, an overwater-bungalow day pass, and a sunset sail, which the big Caribbean ships rarely have time for.
