More things to know 2022: ° *bring cash as well just in case* Debit/credit cards may mess up (it took a week for "pending" charge cancelations to be removed from cards). USD is accepted, but your change will be in XPF ° bring an external charger with you at all times °bring the correct charger outlet! *a charger converter is needed & is best* not an adapter. There is a home depot there, but I'm not sure if they sell charger converters. My laptop died so there's nothing I could do. For my phone, I had to rely on the adapter usb port (so charging was slower)
Thanks for the great video. In addition to a floatie, I wish I’d brought a length of rope so I could relax without worrying about where I drifted to. 😂
Great and helpful video thanks for making it, I am considering Bora Bora for my honeymoon but we both don't know swimming :( , Would be great if you can share your experience about things/activities a non swimmer people can enjoy ?
Hi Piyush! I'm a terrible swimmer myself. The swimming with sharks and stingrays is a must-do in my book. The water is shallow enough to stand, and there are life jackets available. Let the guides know you can't swim and they'll usually take good care of you. If you prefer to stick to land activities, there's a 4x4 jeep tour of the island.
The giant unicorn one weighs ~5.5 lbs. There are smaller ones available. If you fold it correctly, it deflates into a compact backpack that's included with the float.
wild black tip and lemon sharks are generally not hostile to humans. I think lemons primarily feed at night. Just don't bring food and don't provoke them and you're good
Don’t they NOT allow sunscreen in Bora Bora because it kills the corals ? Even parts of Cancun doesn’t allow reef safe sunscreen as it harms their corals.

As a heavy water drinker, that water is such a smart decision. Thank you so much in prior!!
Looks absolutely breathtakingly beautiful!

The water advise is clever! Thank you :)
What resort are you staying at? that is an amazingly beautiful place great video keep up the great work
Thanks! The resort is Conrad Bora Bora Nui.
Question do they have mini fridges? I was told to buy food before heading to the resort to save money on snacks and drinks... thanks
This is awesome! thank you so much!

@@MandyRoams That's perfect, Thank you so much Mandy.
I also recommend a rope for your floatie, then you can close your eyes and float around and not worry about floating away :)
Great help. What time of year did you go? I’m going in May.
Great tips. What month did you go?
We went in July 2018
I recommend bringing an Amazon firestick. TV is pretty boring there.
I wouldnt watch tv on my vacation when travelling lol ill do that at home WHY AM I PAYING SO MUCH MONEY IF I AM JUST WATCHING TV ALL DAY
As Always Gachaforever preach
I dont remember when I ever watched tv during vacation 😂
Who did you book your excursions with?
Dope Video! Sending blessing your way, Keep inspiring!🎒🙌🏻
Hey I'm getting ready to go next month and want to take a float how much did it make your luggage weigh and how did you pack it
The giant unicorn one weighs ~5.5 lbs. There are smaller ones available. If you fold it correctly, it deflates into a compact backpack that's included with the float.
Thank you!! I was so worried cause I know baggage is expensive and I reallllly wanna take a floatie. I'm hoping I can do it all in one suitcase
Thanks for tip that’s good to know,
Great Video 👍🏿 Bora Bora ❤️
Isn't it kind of dangerous swimming that close to A GROUP OF SHARKS?

Love your video .
This popped up in my notifications and I'm like "who the hell is Mandy Roams?" LOL. I didn't realize you had changed the name of your channel.
thank you 😊

Sebby sent me here
👋
I would need spf5000
Do I need coffee dollars?
Do I need XPF dollars in bora bora or USD will do it?
🤔Coooooooooooooool I'm going when I am 18 but I'm 9 😓
luxury resort provide bugspray in room and sunscreen at beach for you already.
From our experience, it really depends on the property. Waldorf Astoria Maldives for example didn't have either (in room or beach).
need some more Mandy wif bare feet and sandals.
