Beaches, partying non-stop, beautiful bodies and ultra-relaxed atmosphere. That’s what Boracay is all about. This is the Philippines’ answer to Indonesia’s Bali and Thailand’s Phucket. The bone-shaped island of Boracay is located in the Western Visayas, at the northwest tip of Panay. A plane trip from Manila will take about thirty to forty-five minutes.
Boracay offers plenty of diversions depending on your inclination. For water sports enthusiasts, you can go sailing, scuba diving, snorkeling, kite-surfing and banana-boat riding. For those who just want to lay their hair down and relax, the clear, warm waters and the fine white sand are plenty of inducement to just spend the day at the beach.
Boracay Island has plenty of great beaches. There is the popular White Beach, Diniwid Beach, Punta Beach, Balinghai Beach and so much more. There are a number of sandy coves nestled around the island and even more little islands surrounding Boracay.
For amazing views of the island, go up to Mount Luho. The steps may be tiring and exhausting, but the views you will enjoy is well worth it. Another unique experience will be a visit to eerie Dead Forest, where literal dead trees cast shadows that you may either find mysterious or downright scary (depending on your inclination). You can also visit the bats at Yapak. Here, fruit bats and cave bats fly right over your head.
Other things you can do (when you’re not at the beach, that is) is to visit Kingfisher’s Farm or Bolabog Beach’s Butterfly Garden. You can also have your picture taken at the rock formations like Willy’s Rock and Boracay Rock.
Come nighttime, Boracay moves to a different beat – more rhythmic, more lively. The partying mood continues till the wee hours of the day. Feel free to join in the revelry. Everybody’s welcome!
