Boracay Beach Resort - Exploring Boracay Island
Exploring Boracay IslandÂ
Take a boat around the island, with lunch included which is only a couple of hundred pesos for the afternoon.
Generally scuba diving sites are extremely poor, with the exception of ‘Yapak’- a deep wall dive suitable for only the most experienced divers.
A sailing tour with The Red Pirates is a must in Boracay. You will find their red paraw (native sailboat) in Angol at the southern end of White Beach. The place is called The Red Pirates Pub. It is a beautiful spot with a very unique driftwood garden under high coconut trees. Enjoy your drink, meet other travelers from around the globe and watch one of the most spectacular sunsets in Asia. Cap. Joey will bring you to a secluded beach for a beach BBQ and he will show you the best spots around Boracay`s shores for snorkeling.
Horse riding is a fun activity in Boracay - get off the beaten path and experience native villages and scenery most other visitors don’t get to see. All levels of experience are catered to. Ask a tricycle to take you to the Boracay Horse Riding Stables.
It is worth hiring motorbikes or scooters out 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. Hire them for a couple of days and you should get a discount. The roads are a bit dodgy, and some are still being constructed, but it’s a good laugh and better than plunking yourself on a patch of white sand and seeing nothing. If you happen to be lying on the beach though definitely have a massage and manicure.
Located on Bulabog Beach, the Boracay Butterfly Garden is a “Must See” for Boracay visitors. Walk among rare and beautiful butterflies in a tropical garden by the beach. It is fun and educational, with conducted tours of the life cycles, with eggs, caterpillars, pupae, and mature butterflies.
Try rock climbing at D’Wall Climbing Gym, an outdoor rock climbing gym located at D’Mall near Boat Station 2.
