Boat
Most visitors will need to take a boat to reach the Bora Bora Lagoonarium, as it is located on a motu. If arriving from the Bora Bora Airport (BOB) on Motu Mute, take the free Air Tahiti or Air Moana shuttle boat to Vaitape. From Vaitape, arrange for a boat transfer with the Lagoonarium or a water taxi. Alternatively, many resorts offer direct boat transfers to the Lagoonarium. Boat transfers from Vaitape typically cost between 3,000-6,000 XPF (approximately $30-$60 USD) depending on the type of boat and distance.
