French Polynesia · SUNSET CRUISES
The wind drops around six and the lagoon goes to glass. These 15 sails are compared on boat, drinks and where they sit when the light goes — the ones that anchor with Otemanu behind you are worth the extra.

Review of Bora Bora’s sunset outrigger cruise and St James dinner, with pricing, timing, food, weather risks, transport, and booking advice.
“Beautiful sunset cruise. Our guide was excellent. Took us to various locations and was great at pointing out the different marine life throughout the cruise (Sharks and Eagle Rays). My wife and I enjoyed the champagne and the delicious fruits. Lastly, our dinner at St James was great. Friendly staff and stunning views. It was only us and another couple which also made it such a private event. It was a very romantic evening.”
Watch Bora Bora’s sunset from a small boat, then learn Polynesian star navigation on a private motu with drinks and music.
“Tour cancelled last minute with no offer to reschedule. I'm sure it's a solid experience but it was frustrating to have planned around that (with very late dinner reservations to accommodate and foregoing other planned activities) and then have it cancelled without any plan other than refund. Our time here is precious and we want to spend it well.”

Review of Bora Bora’s two-hour sunset catamaran cruise, with champagne, snacks, hotel pickup, mountain views, and practical booking tips.
“It was a wonderful sail and the captain and mate were very friendly. The sunset was gorgeous. The boat is brand new and very comfortable. Soft drinks like soda on board should be added. A few wanted soda and there wasn’t any. Over all a great experience. The mountain view from the Thalasso Intercontinental is the best and the boat didn’t go there. I would add this to the sail for guests that don’t get to see this view from other hotels. Overall we are glad we did it! Gorgeous place for sure!”
