Do u know the developer/owner of Boracay is a America company?
Thats why Boracay so famous. Can u share wif us how to get
there?
Hey I would love to...
Well what happened is that me and a couple of friends wanted to
go to a nice beach for holiday... We were planning on going to
Bohol (another good beach island in Phil), due to the simple reason
that it is very near Cebu - Silkair flight to Cebu, take a 90
minute boat ride.
But I casually mentioned my plans to a Philippines counterpart
and she told me we had to go to Boracay instead... So we took a
plunge and changed our plans..
Boracay is actually situated midpoint between Manila and Cebu
(the only 2 places accessible from SG), since we already booked our
flight to Cebu, we had to go from there...
From Cebu, we took a domestic flight (45 mins) to this place
called Cataclan which is just a boat ride away from Boracay... And
from there, we subsequently took a boat to the paradise island
itself...
Some stuff about the transportation I have to add, when you
reach Cataclan, I advise just look for the locals milling around
there, they will help get you to Boracay and settle all the boat
tickets and stuff (hassle free just pay money)...
It might sound like a huge fuss just getting there itself, but I
assure you it is worth it... Imagine a 4 km beach stretch with
about 70m of beach "depth" during low tide, all clean fine sand...
absolutely amazing... Resorts line the 4 km stretch, with the
middle being a row of restaurants, beach activities vendors and
PUBS...
While i'm at it, accommodation is pretty simple, just search the
internet for resorts located on the Main Beach, internet booking is
actually available.... I stayed in this one called the White House
iirc....
Feel free to PM or ask me if any of you need any more
information or detail, i'll be very glad to share my experiences in
Boracay...
