ten reasons why i love boracay

in ending the boracay series, let me give you ten reason why i love this island. TEN >>> accessibility. the island of Boracay has one of the most number of flights within the Philippines. you can drive your way from Manila to Caticlan thru the RORO (Roll-On-Roll-Off) system or take a road trip from Iloilo to Caticlan. when you reach the Caticlan Jetti port, it has a very good system of having a centralized boat system ride. motor boats only dock at one port in Boracay which means the main beach will have less motor boats giving more space for beach bums. NINE >>> accommodations. one can enjoy and have options of hotels, villas, condominiums and cheap lodging houses. you have the option to choose hotels based on its location as you might want a semi-private area or on places where people flock. EIGHT >>> beach activities. name a beach activity and you'll find it in Boracay. almost all the sports and beach activities are available there. you'll enjoy kayaking when the sea is calm. scuba diving and snorkeling areas are just within the area of the island. parasailing, kiteboarding, skimboarding are becoming more popular. your weekend is not enough to try all these. SEVEN >>> sunset. the sun displays it's golden beauty on a good weather making it a very popular scene in the island. to me sunset in Boracay symbolizes the start of the party the people awaits in the island. sunrise is beautiful as well on the other side of the island.SIX >>> nightlife. one might sometimes think that the island is busier at night than in the morning as people go out and hop from dining restaurants to coffee shops. others just stroll and have some great time chatting along the beach while listening to the different bands playing from the bars.FIVE >>> the people. you'll see people from other countries coming to the Philippines just to see this beach. but as much as foreigners flock this beach, Filipinos enjoy it as well. sometimes i really wonder if Boracay is more popular than Manila in the world. FOUR >>> anything. anything. you can find almost anything there. banks, internet cafes, mall, small beach shops, sea food straight from the wet market, international golf course or ice cold shakes. it's all there.THREE >>> sands. the fine white powdery sands in the island are among the best in the Philippines. you won't believe that just walking along the beach shore by foot can be the best thing one can do in Boracay. it's simply because of the sands.TWO >>> white long stretch beach. having fine white powdery sand is already enticing but having four kilometers of that is more than enough. one needs enough rest to walk from end to end. try it.ONE >>> it's a big island. i thought Boracay is small but not when i was already there. Boracay is not only the central beach. it's the whole island. it has other coves that offers a more private mood. i recommend that you explore, explore and explore. try Puka beach or Lapus Lapus beach or just behind the rocky cliffs beach of Diniwid. island hop! drive ATVs or cycle your way around the island. it can be a perfect activity for those who are staying there for more than a weekend.so if you'll ask me if i'm going back to Boracay? definitely. of the four days and three nights that i was there, i can say that there's still a lot of reason why i need to be there again and again and again.
