17 Photos To Inspire You Visit Boracay, Philippines

Boracay is a small island of the Philippines located an hour away from a plane ride from Manila, the country’s capital.

It’s also a very famous destination in the Philippines for whoever would like to enjoy a dreamy beach and the activities (cliff jumping, island hopping, snorkelling, etc) the place has to offer.

So, I compiled 17 of my favourite photos to inspire you to visit Boracay and learn more about the island.

17 Photos To Inspire You Visit Boracay

I spent three days in Boracay with my friends at the end of January. Needless to say, when you arrive from a cold grey Paris, it’s pretty dreamy.
I love Paris in winter and any season, as a matter of fact, but seeing the sun and the beach while being with my friends made me pretty thrilled.

Granted, three days only on this dreamy island isn’t a lot, but it is still enjoyable when it is all you can add to your timetable. Especially since I probably saw some of the most breathtaking sunsets I had ever seen in my life so far!

Check this out; you can not say this isn’t one of the most stunning sunsets you’ve seen. And it’s unedited!

About Boracay

The island is progressively changing and growing more and more to respond to the increase in demand for tourism. This is good as it creates jobs and opportunities for the locals.

Boracay comprises three stations; station 2 is the ‘party’ station, where most of the animation and bars are. Station 2 is also where we stayed during our trip.

Behind the beach and the front sea restaurants, you can find a whole touristy area with an open mall. A few constructions are still going on, but it’s not much compared to the rest of the island, where a lot is under construction to bring more attention to the rest of the land and not only the beachside.

The main beach there is “White Beach”. You can guess by the name that it’s loose and powdery white sand. It’s probably, for a lot of people, a paradise on Earth. And, rightfully so, the location is breathtaking.

Although while it’s magical, it’s also very touristic and can feel a little packed during the high season (from November to April). So, keep that in mind.
While it’s the nicest to travel when it’s the most crowded, it’s also good to avoid the rainy season if you’d like to travel across the country as it might limit your travel due to the rain or potential typhoon.

On a side note, those photos are dreamy, and I hope they inspire you to visit and discover more about this dreamy island and what the Philippines has to offer.

HOWEVER.

Those kinds of islands are paradise on earth; it’s sad to see how people, mostly tourists, destroy those kinds of places between the plastic pollution in the sea and the general trash everywhere.

Add to this the non-respect of nature and general destruction of the place, and there is nothing left of those places.

Of course, I don’t forget that travelling by plane isn’t the best for the planet and those islands either. But keeping them trash free is a good start.

✈ Best Travel Ressources To Plan Your Next Trip

✈ How To Find Flights?

– Skyscanner; it is a good comparator for finding the cheapest flights.
– Google Flight is also a good help when it comes to comparing flights.

✈ Where To Book Accommodations?

– Booking.com: plenty of options and ways to get discount the more you book.

✈ Best Sites To Book Activities

My go-to website when I need to book an activity is GetYourGuide when I can’t get a ticket directly on the website or if it’s easier to go through them.

– Klook if you need to book more than just activities and would like to get everything from the same website—(i.e. transport cards, car rental, hotel…).

✈ Other helpful travel resources

– Radical Storage: If you need a place to keep your luggage for an extended period when you travel, I recommend using them. It was a great help when we needed a place to keep our luggage safely while we left the city for a few days.
– TheTrainline: If you love to travel by train like me, then TheTrainline needs to be your go-to website for train travel in Europe. It is very reliant and easy to use.
