Matira Beach is a mile of exquisite white sand at the southern tip of
Bora Bora Island. Bora Bora is like the Gwyneth Paltrow of beaches — a
little too perfect to be believable.
But the spell that this small island in French Polynesia has cast on probably every traveler ever to dip a toe into its soft sands or calm waters has yet to be broken.
When you visit, you will understand why it is Bora Bora’s most popular public beach.
On the eastern side, several four and five star Bora Bora resorts nestle along Pofai Bay and have great views of the Beach.
Bora Bora is a heavy tourist destination — luxury resorts and budget bungalows dapple the white sand perimeter.
But its best spot, Matira Beach, reminds you why places like this become popular in the first place.
The white sand slopes gently into a sandy bottomed lagoon so the water is warm and shallow. The floor is flat and has a sandy, coral-free bottom to walk on. I have not seen any children there, but if you are traveling with your family, this would be a wonderful place for children to swim and play.
