French Polynesia · MOTU PICNIC DAYS
A motu is an islet on the reef, and a picnic day buys you one for the afternoon. These 8 differ on how private the sandbar is, what comes off the grill and how much of the day is spent in the water rather than getting there.

See Bora Bora by ATV and jet ski, visit WWII cannons, enjoy island views, and share a Polynesian barbecue lunch on a motu.
“This was a wonderful excursion to see the island and lagoon in one fun filled day. The morning was spent exploring the land and receiving great insight into the history of the island. The afternoon was dedicated to just having fun on the water. And what spectacular water this lagoon has. So many beautiful shades of blue as we jet skied around the island. It was a very memorable day for my wife and I.”

“Journée fantastique avec l’excellent guide Marama, nous nous sommes émerveillés de ses connaissances et avons pu voir, des dauphins, des tortues, raies mangas, pastenague et les requins à pointes noires. Il nous a guidé dans le jardin de corail c’était fantastique. Le repas sur le motu et de grande qualité et notre hôte nous a fait la recette du poisson cru au lait de coco.

“We had the BEST day with Ray on a private tour with lunch! He took us to fabulous snorkel sites and told us lots of Tahitian history. We had so many places to ourselves without crowds. What a great experience and the lunch was delicious with a ukulele serenade by Ray, who is also a great singer! If you can, book this tour!”
Every kind of day out on the islands, and the best of each.
