Boracay Island

Boracay Island is the no.1 tourist destination of the Philippines. Acclaimed as the best beach in the world, roughly shape like a dumbbell, is 7km long, its narrowest part is nearly 1km wide. Best part of the island is its 4 km White Beach, also called Long Beach by the locals.

There are two primary tourism beaches in Boracay Island, the White Beach in the westwards and Bulabog Beach which faces the eastwards , located on opposite side of the island.

White Beach - Is the most popular beach where it offers various amenities and services for the tourists, also known for having a long winding beachwalk path, the tourist find this side of the island as an ideal for various activities. The westward part also captures the spot for the tourists to watch the dramatic sunset.

Bulabog Beach - Is where some of the adventures take place from kite boarding to windsurfing mainly because of the wind direction.

Basang and Hurom-Hurom Cold Springs

Buruanga’s Ariel’s Point

Much like the world-famous cliff-diving spot at La Quebrada in Acapulco, Mexico, the rocky half hectare of Ariel’s Point is now a major water sport destination for Boracay holiday-makers and pelagic sports enthusiasts who consider it as one of the “best dive spots” off the world-famous island destination. Located in the rustic coastal town of Buruanga in Aklan near the Antique border, two kilometers away on the mainland of Panay and half-an-hour’s speedboat ride from Boracay.
