Bora Bora in the Leeward Islands of French Polynesia

French Polynesia is a sort of geographic nesting doll of islands in the south Pacific Ocean. Bora Bora is one of the nine Leeward Islands, which are part of the larger Society Islands group, which is included in the still larger collection of islands and reefs that make up French Polynesia. Like Tahiti, Bora Bora thrives on tourism. One look out the window this cold January, and we’re wishing we could climb into this image and stay a while.
