Emdee Posted August 10, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Does PG still take you to a private beach by boat shuttle? Are there any amenities there? chairs? unbrellas? drinks?thanks Yes the BB motu is still available now for both days. No facilities, chairs or umbrellas. They have a small bar with water, beer fruit punch and chips. They sometimes have kayaks there. Here is a video of the BB motu. It has the lovely Hina welcoming you. Unfortunately she is mot with the PG any more....miss her! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy The Wanderer Posted August 10, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 10, 2014 This is beach towel territory only, but absolutely lovely. No washrooms either, btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ducklite Posted August 20, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 20, 2014 We had our vow renewal on the Bora Bora motu. It's absolutely lovely, but pretty "primative." One advantage over Motu Mahana is that when you step off the skiff you are only in ankle deep water in Bora Bora as opposed to the mid-thigh deep water at Motu Mahana. If you are considering a beach vow renewal, this is something to be aware of. We originally planned on renewing on Motu Hahana, but they postponed it due to strong chances of rain. I'm glad they did, as my just above the knee length dress and my husbands pants would have been soaked, and being linen would have ended up a wrinkled mess for the photos. My husband was able to cuff up his pants a few inches and they stayed dry at the Bora Bora motu, and I didn't have to do anything but take off my sandals.

Last jan we had the reverse. High waves in BB Motu and only calf length at MM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible to watch sunset from the motu? They were clearing everyone off by around 4:00 with the last boat at maybe 4:30--still very much daylight. The view is nice.
