Wake Foil in Bora Bora
The closest thing to flying this lagoon offers. A hydrofoil under the board lifts you clear of the surface and the noise stops — no spray, no slap, no wake, just the reef going past underneath.
Is it difficult?
Less than it looks, if you are taught properly. The foil is unforgiving of sudden movements and very rewarding of patience, so we teach it in stages: first riding on the board with the foil kept down, then short lifts, then sustained flight. Most riders with any board experience get a first real flight inside a single session.
Book two hours, not one
Foiling in a single hour is possible but tight. The moment it clicks is almost always in the last twenty minutes, once you stop fighting the board, so the second hour is the one that pays for itself.
Safety
The foil has an edge and we treat it seriously. Full briefing before you get in the water, helmet and impact vest available, and the instructor stays close throughout the session. Nobody is sent out alone to work it out for themselves.
What is included
Boat, instructor, foil equipment, helmet and impact vest, life jackets. The price is for the boat, not per person.
From 26,000 XPF for one hour — per boat, up to 6 people. Two hours recommended.
