Boracay
Boracay Island is the Philippines' top beach destination; internationally renowned for its fine white sand and sparkling blue waters that rival any to be found in the Caribbean or South Pacific. The island is replete with resorts and hotels for all sorts of travelers and offers everything from ultimate relaxation and spa treatments to exciting new water sports and activities such as diving, snorkeling, jet skiing, windsurfing, and cliff diving.
The island's two main beaches are Balubog Beach to the east and White Beach on the west shore. The climate interchanges during the dry season (October to June) and wet seasons (July- September), offering different activities year round.
Restaurants, sailing, a mysterious bat cave on a secluded island, motor biking and watersports will fill your days with sun, fun and pleasure.
