Boracay Island

Boracay Island is consistently on the list of the best beach destinations in Asia because of its white, fine, sugar-like sands along the famous White Beach. Boracay is known for having delicious gourmet food, the hottest nightlife, the coolest adventure sports, pampering spas, luxurious resorts and the bohemian lifestyle all rolled into one fun island experience.

But if the hectic beach lifestyle isn't your thing, you'll also find another part of Boracay catering to your whims. After all, it is also famous for the simple things in life, like walking while holding hands with your significant other along the beach…or eating chori burger and drinking Jonas Milkshakes…or riding the Paraw as the sun sets on the horizon.

How to get to Boracay Island?
Take a flight to Manila. You may have to spend a night in Manila on your outward journey because onward flights to Boracay are limited.

Fly Philippine Airlines from Manila (Domestic Airport) to Kalibo Airport. (The flight takes 30 minutes and costs about 3,000 Philippine peso return).

From Kalibo Airport takes the air-conditioned bus to Caticlan and the boat from Caticlan harbor to Boracay (the bus trip takes 90 minutes and the boat 30 minutes; combined ticket Pp140).

Various charter companies fly direct from Manila to Caticlan Airport (Pp4, 000 return; 60-90 minutes).

As there is no jetty on Boracay, you have to wade ashore from the boat, so wear something suitable!
