Where to Go and What to Do in Boracay Guide
There are many things to do and see in Boracay that can keep you busy and make for a memorable vacation in this tiny piece of paradise. Upon arriving in Boracay the first attraction that you’ll have to check out is White Beach, the prime attraction of Boracay Island.
White Beach is an breathtaking five kilometer stretch of powdery white sand bordered by azure blue waters perfect for swimming and other beach activities. It is the main tourism and commercial area lined with all sorts of resorts, restaurants, bars, shops, and small vendors. Most of the tourists on the island go out to White Beach during sundown especially near Willy’s Rock in Station 1 to see the amazing sunset that Boracay is famous for.
Locals also build elaborate sandcastles during this time so be sure to take a quick snapshot with these beautiful creations. At night, you can party the night away in one of Boracay’s night clubs or just enjoy the ambiance in its many bars.
Aside from White Beach, Boracay has more white sand beaches scattered around the island. These beaches are much peaceful and less crowded than White Beach.
It is worth going in boat tours or renting motorbikes to explore the island, as there are other beautiful beaches on the other side of the island that are even better for snorkeling that will be completely deserted.
Here’s a list of nice places to visit in Boracay Island:
- Willy’s Rock
- Naked Rock
- South Coral Shelf
- Bulabog Beach – located on the opposite side of White Beach, it is the second longest beach in the island. Favorable wind speeds in Bulabog Beach make it is a popular haven for wind sports enthusiasts.
- Puka Beach a quiet stretch of white sand along the northern tip of the island. This is where locals gather the small puka shells for some of the jewelry that is sold on the island so expect the sand to be more coarse than on White Beach.
