Which side of the plane to sit from Bora Bora Airport (Bora Bora) to Moorea Airport (Moorea)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side is world-renowned for providing the iconic postcard views of Moorea's dramatic bays upon arrival.
Mount Otemanu
Direct views of Bora Bora's iconic volcanic spire during the initial climb and banking turn.
Taha'a North Shore
Bird's-eye perspective of the expansive reef systems and the lush coastline of the Vanilla Island.
Huahine Nui
The larger northern part of Huahine featuring deep, mystical bays and emerald forests.
Opunohu Bay
A breathtaking view of Moorea's steep, lush volcanic ridges during the final descent.
Cook's Bay
One of the world's most famous landscapes, featuring jagged peaks reflected in turquoise water.
Air Tahiti typically operates with open seating; board early to secure a left-side window seat. Morning flights between 8:00 AM and 10:00 AM offer the most vibrant lagoon colors without excessive sun glare. Keep your camera ready specifically during the last 5 minutes of the flight for the Moorea bay reveals.
Matira Point
The southernmost tip of Bora Bora with its famous shallow turquoise waters and white sands.
Raiatea Lagoon
View of the vast lagoon shared between Raiatea and Taha'a, known as the cradle of Polynesian culture.
Huahine Iti
The smaller, more secluded southern half of the Huahine island complex and its outer reef.
Moorea West Reef
Vibrant colors of the lagoon and waves crashing on the outer barrier reef during the approach.
The right side is ideal for seeing the expansive lagoons of Raiatea. If traveling in the late afternoon, this side offers superior views of the golden hour light reflecting off the Pacific Ocean. Polarized sunglasses are highly recommended to cut through the water's surface glare for better reef visibility.
