点评:Most people think of Bora Bora as pristine and beautiful beaches that are endless. The statement is true, but only one problem. The Hotels own their own beaches and they do not allow anyone to use them. The island is surrounded by an reef and those large reefs with land are where the hotels are located. They require boats to get you to and from the airport or the town of Bora Bora. The boats are free since the cost of the rooms are between $2000 to $7000 PER NIGHT. Our cruise ship arrived in the town of Bora Bora and there is only one (1) beach for the public on the main island. Matira Beach is the name and it is stunning and nice. From the center of town there are a myriad of trucks and small buses that take you to and from the beach for only $5 per person each way. Hard to beat in a place where everything is expensive. Those small trucks run to and from the beach about every 15 minutes all day long. Taxis want $25 each way. Stick with the truck/van shuttles. Also very important! The beach is filled with stingrays coming right up to the edge of the beach. They are very tame and do not bother you and even dont mind having their pictures taken up close. It was a lot of fun. Snorkeling, bathrooms and food are on the beach as well for a small amount of money. Hard to beat this beach!
翻译:大多数人认为波拉波拉岛拥有绵延不绝的原始美丽海滩。这话没错,但有一个问题:酒店拥有自己的私人海滩,不允许任何人使用。岛屿周围环绕着珊瑚礁,酒店就建在这些拥有陆地的大型珊瑚礁上。往返机场或波拉波拉镇都需要乘船。由于酒店房间每晚的价格在2000美元到7000美元之间,所以船票是免费的。我们的游轮抵达了波拉波拉镇,主岛上只有一个公共海滩,名为马蒂拉海滩(Matira Beach)。它景色迷人,非常漂亮。从镇中心出发,有很多卡车和小巴往返海滩,单程每人只需5美元。在这个物价高昂的地方,这简直太划算了。这些小巴全天大约每15分钟一班往返海滩。出租车单程就要25美元。所以,还是选择卡车/小巴吧。还有一点非常重要!沙滩上有很多鳐鱼,它们会游到岸边。它们非常温顺,不会打扰你,甚至不介意你近距离拍照。这真是太有趣了。沙滩上还有浮潜设施、洗手间和食物,价格也很实惠。这片沙滩简直完美!
