Bora Bora Jet Ski Circumnavigation: Full Island by Sea

Blast around the entire perimeter of Bora Bora on a guided jet ski convoy, hugging the reef pass, skimming past overwater bungalows, and stopping at hidden snorkel spots — a thrilling, high-speed perspective on paradise.

What to expect

After a brief safety briefing at the marina, your guide leads a small convoy of jet skis out of the lagoon and around the island's outer ring. The pace is energetic but the guide pauses at the most spectacular vantage points: the narrow reef pass where the ocean swells in electric blue, the stretch of overwater bungalows reflected in glassy green shallows, and a remote motu beach for a quick snorkel. Circumnavigating the entire island takes 2–3 hours and covers perspectives — speed, wind, salt spray, volcanic panorama — that no other excursion combines.

Good to know

Tours typically run 2.5–3 hours; morning slots keep you well inside all-aboard windows. A valid driving licence is generally required to operate your own jet ski; confirm at booking. Book directly via projectexpedition.com. Waterproof your phone or bring a waterproof case — the spray is real and the photo opportunities are extraordinary.
