The islands of Tahiti will feature the first annual Bora Bora Liquid Festival this year, scheduled to take place at Matira Beach from Dec. 12 to 18. The Liquid Festival celebrates authentic Tahitian culture with an abundance of activities designed to transport attendees into the heart of French Polynesia.

The festival offers a week-long program filled with competitions and races featuring aquatic athletes, such as Alex Kostich, competing in events including long-distance swims, circle-island Va’a Polynesian outrigger races and SUP sprints. The event will also feature DJs spinning at beach parties, festive barbecues, traditional Tahitian dancing expositions, kids’ programs, water sports lessons, and deeply discounted tours and activities open to everyone, including guided Waverunner tours and unforgettable shark and ray feeding adventures.

The mid-December timing is also ideal for active and family travelers to experience a great getaway that doesn’t conflict with Christmas or the New Year’s holidays.

Known originally as the Bora Bora IronMana, the Bora Bora Liquid Festival began in 2000 as the only Va’a-1 (one-man traditional Polynesian outrigger) endurance paddling event in the world covering over 56 kilometers, or 34 miles. The brainchild of Bora-based aquatic athlete Stephan Lambert, the event has grown over the past decade into a much larger, inclusive event open to all that celebrates local culture as well as sporting excellence.
