The Best Beach of the World is Bora Bora
Bora Bora is in the Leeward group of Society Islands of French Polynesia, an overseas territory of France in the Pacific Ocean. The Bora Bora island located about 230 km (140 miles) north-west of Papeete, is surrounded by a lagoon and barrier reef. In the center of the island are the remains of an extinct volcano rising to two summits, Mount Pahia and Mount Otemanu, the highest point at 727 m. The original name of the Bora Bora beach in Tahiti language could be better made that Pora Pora, which means “first born”, a beginning of the transcript found in the 18th and 19th century accounts, is Bolabolla.
The beach of Bora Bora is administratively part of the town of Bora-Bora island itself in the administrative branch of Leeward Islands. In 2002, the population was about 7250 people. The main settlement, Vaitape is on the west side of the island, opposite the main channel into the lagoon. The products of the island are mostly limited to what can be obtained from the sea and coconut trees, which historically were of economic importance for copra.
