Bora Bora is just so totally incredible. As a beach and sea lover I can’t think of anywhere more beautiful and unspoiled anywhere in the world. Of course it is an 18 hour flight from Los Angeles, but that’s doable…New York to Bangkok takes 20+ hours and I’ve done that over a dozen times. Definitely worth the flight time to see this wonder in French Polynesia and just think of all the miles you’ll be racking up!
