Le Méridien Beach arcs around Bora Bora’s dazzlingly beautiful lagoon on the island’s eastern edge. Fronting the lagoon on a tiny motu (small islet), the beach is a glorious expanse of white sand fringed with coconut palms. Stay at Le Méridien Beach’s overwater bungalows and wake up each morning with views of the island’s remarkable central peak, Mount Otemanu.
Stroll along the water’s edge and feel the soft coral sand beneath your feet. Pick a sun lounge, hammock or patch of sand to recline on and spend some time basking in the sun’s rays. With gorgeous tropical waters just a few steps away, you won’t be able to resist diving in for a refreshing swim. Grab your snorkel and check out some of the iridescent tropical fish that inhabit the azure lagoon. Go windsurfing, Jet-Skiing or kayaking along the coastline and take in the sights of Mount Otemanu’s forested foothills and jagged peak.
Join a scuba-diving tour and go on an unforgettable journey past brightly colored coral gardens, curious fish and graceful turtles. If you want to learn more about these creatures, make your way to the nearby turtle sanctuary. Help the keepers to feed and care for sick and injured turtles before releasing them back into the wild.
Stay overnight at Le Méridien Beach Resort and book a thatched-roof bungalow perched over the tranquil lagoon. Take advantage of the resort’s watersports equipment and extensive range of dining options. There is also a wellness center, where you can book massage and rejuvenation sessions. Listen to the gentle sounds of the water below your luxurious cabin as you fall asleep and awake refreshed and ready for a new day on the magnificent lagoon. The resort has an on-site gift store stocked with souvenirs, including black pearls and pareo garments.
Le Méridien Beach is located on Motu Piti Aau on the lagoon’s central-eastern edge. It is a 20-minute ride from Motu Mute Airport on a motorboat. Reach the beach by charter boat or enjoy airport pickup in a private speedboat if you book a night at the resort.
