Shoulder season in Bora Bora

The travel industry refers to “shoulder season in Bora Bora” to describe the periods on either side of high
season and low season, when there are less travelers. The months of April, May and November are included in Bora Bora shoulder season.

This may be the best time to go to Bora Bora:

• Tahiti’s tropical weather can be spectacular at the times of year that are categorized under shoulder season in Bora Bora. The months of April, May, and November usually turn on warm weather, warm waters, and light showers that pass quickly.
• The summer vacationers from Europe and America – who have their holidays in Bora Bora’s winter - are conveniently absent, so there are less visitors. A lower demand for travel and accommodation means that the rates for getting here, and staying here, are reduced.
