Mute Island is a tiny, uninhabited motu (islet) near Bora Bora, known for its quiet, uncrowded beaches and superb snorkeling. The surrounding lagoon teems with tropical fish, rays, and occasional sharks. Visitors typically arrive by boat as part of a lagoon tour or private excursion. The island's pristine sand and shallow waters make it ideal for swimming and relaxing away from the main tourist areas.
