As we continued our bike ride around the south end of the island, we passed Matira Beach, one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. White sand beaches are relatively rare in the Society Islands (and for that matter in all of French Polynesia), but Bora Bora has a few. This particular beach was beautiful, with soft white sand and shallow water all the way to the reef, which gave it a gorgeous bright aqua and green hue. -Cyndi
