Pulau ini telah dihuni oleh orang [[Polinesia]] sekitar abad ke 4 [[Common Era|C.E.]] {{Citation needed|date=November 2015}}. Orang Eropa yang pertama kali mendatangi pulau ini adalah [[Jakob Roggeveen]] tahun 1722. [[James Cook]] melihat pulau ini dan mendarat pada tahun yang sama yakni tahun 1769 dengan menggunakan [[Tupaia (navigator)|Tupaia]] sebagai navigator. Kemudian [[London Missionary Society]] tiba pada tahun 1820 dan mendirikan [[Gereja Protestan]] tahun 1890. Bora Bora dulunya merupakan sebuah [[Kingdom of Bora Bora|independent kingdom]] sampai 1888 yang dipimpin terakhir kali oleh Ratu [[Teriimaevarua III]] yang dipaksa turun tahta oleh Koloni Prancis.
 
===Perang Dunia II===
In [[World War II]] the United States chose Bora Bora as a [[South Pacific Area|South Pacific]] military supply base, and an oil depot, airstrip, [[seaplane]] base, and defensive fortifications were constructed. Known as "Operation Bobcat", it maintained a supply force of nine ships, 20,000 tons of equipment and nearly 7,000 men. Seven artillery guns were set up at strategic points around the island to protect it against potential military attack.
 
However, the island saw no combat as the American presence on Bora Bora went uncontested over the course of the war. The base was officially closed on June 2, 1946. The World War II airstrip was never able to accommodate large aircraft, but it nonetheless was [[French Polynesia]]'s only international airport until [[Faa'a International Airport]] opened next to [[Papeete]], [[Tahiti]], in 1960.
