What should we pay attention to when going to Boracay? What season is the most suitable for going to Boracay?

Speaking of foreign countries, everyone has the place that they want to go most, but the place that I want to go most is Boracay, which is located in the Philippines. Maybe I have a broken horse in my heart, so I want to complete 3 wish lists like Chen Yihan, or maybe I want to meet the good man in my life here. As a saying goes, life lies in tossing, and this time Boracay is one of the places that I like tossing most. When is the best season to go to Boracay?

Boracay has a tropical marine climate, and there is no concept of spring, summer, autumn and winter. If we only look at the temperature, it is summer all year round. Generally, Boracay can be roughly divided into "rainy season" and "dry season". The rainy season is the off-season of tourism. It is rainy and windy, and it is often disturbed by typhoons. The dry season is the peak season for tourism. At that time, there will be many tourists, popular hotels will be fully booked in advance, and the house price may double.

June-October is the rainy season, and it rains almost every afternoon. It rains heavily, but it won't last long. During the rainy season, the wind is also very strong, and many sea activities will be affected, but it is only suitable for activities that require wind and waves such as surfing. During the rainy season, activities such as island jumping and diving will be carried out according to the weather of the day, and it is common to change the project temporarily.

November-April is a dry season with little rainfall, which is the tourist season in Boracay. At the same time, it is winter in the northern hemisphere, and a large number of tourists from all over the world (including Filipinos) will come to Boracay for their holidays. You must book hotels as early as possible when traveling in the peak season. In the peak season, the weather is very good, sunny and hot, and the sea waves are small, which is very suitable for all kinds of marine entertainment activities. Island jumping and diving are also the key ways to play in the peak season.

How does Sunset Beach Sports Independent of Seasons get to Boracay from home?

① There is no airport in Boracay, and the nearest airport is Caticlan

Airport, which is the closest to the pier, but it is not the most important way;

② The most common way is to transfer from Manila to Kalibo/Kalibo International Airport, then transfer to the dock by bus, take a boat to the island, and then take a bus to the hotel. This is the route of "combined transportation by vehicle and boat". The most routine route from China is to fly to Manila, the Philippine capital, and then transfer to Kalibo or Cardinal. If your city has direct international flights to Kalibo, it will be much more convenient and save the trouble of connecting in Manila.

There are several kinds of routine trips to Boracay:

Route 1: China-Manila Airport-(international to domestic flights)-Kalibo Airport-transfer bus (1.5-2 hours' drive)-Caticality

Port-take a boat to the island (about 2 minutes by boat)-island hotel

-Caticalan Airport-Caticalanjetty

Port-Take a boat to the island (about 2 minutes by boat)-Hotel on the island

Route 3: China-Direct flight to Kalibo Airport-Transfer to a bus (1.5-2 hours by car)-Caticalanjetty

Port-Take a boat. The two most commonly used airports around Boracay are Caticlan

Airport and Kalibo

Airport. Most tourists fly to these two airports and then transfer to the island. As can be seen from the map below, the nearest airport to Boracay Island is Catiklan Airport, while the Karibo Airport is about 7 kilometers away from the pier.

Catilanairport (code MPH)

Catilanairport is the closest airport for domestic flights in the Philippines, only about 5 meters away. If there is not much luggage outside the airport, you can walk there or take a sudden train. Although it is convenient, this airport is very small, the number of planes it can accommodate is limited, and there are not many flights flying in every day, which is not so popular compared with the Karibo airport 7 kilometers away.

From Manila Airport, you can take flights from Philippine Airlines, Cebu Airlines and AirAsia Philippines directly to Catiklan Airport. Generally speaking, the fare is more expensive than that of Biccari Bo Airport. From Cebu, you can also take direct flights from Philippine Airlines, Cebu Airlines and Southeast Asia Airlines in the Philippines.

Kalibo/KaliboAirport (KLO)

Kalibo Airport is an international airport, which is about 7km away from Caticranjetty

Port. After flying here, you will find many buses going to Cardickland Pier/Boracay Pier when you get out of the airport. The fare is about 15P, and you will leave when you are full. The journey takes about 1.5-2 hours. You can also book the pick-up and drop-off machine for combined transportation of vehicles and boats online in advance.

There are at least 1 direct flights from Manila and Cebu in the Philippines every day, and it is usually more convenient for most tourists to fly to Kalibo Airport.

for direct flights from China, the main routes are "Shanghai-Kalibo (Asian Airlines)" and "Beijing/Guangzhou/Chengdu-Kalibo (Philippine Airlines)".

The journey of "Kalibo Airport-Catiklan Pier-Boracay-Island Hotel" from Kalibo Airport to and from the island hotel takes at least 3 hours, so it is ideal to leave the hotel at least 5 hours in advance according to the departure time of the plane when returning.

hotels are an important determinant of the quality of holidays in Boracay. Accommodation on the island is very selective, ranging from high-end island resorts to homestay inns. Most of the hotels on the island are located in the 4-kilometer-long Baishatan area on the west side. According to the development sequence, they are divided into Pier 1 (Station

1, referred to as S1), Pier 2 (referred to as S2) and Pier 3 (Station

3, referred to as S3). From S1 to S3, the hotel quality is from "luxury" to "frugality", with S1 being the best location. There are also some family-style apartment hotels on Mount

Luho. Although they are a little far from the beach, they can see the open sea view from a height.

If you are visiting Boracay for a holiday for the first time, or married with children to help the elderly and bring up the young, it is recommended that you stay in a hotel for at least 2-3 days, and don't change it frequently. You'd better choose a hotel near the beach, where it is convenient to experience sea entertainment or walk on the beach. The gap between hotel prices in rainy season (off-season) and dry season (peak season) is also relatively large. In off-season, it is usually more affordable, and popular holiday hotels in peak season may find it hard to find a room, and the price will double.

S1 Wharf Area /Station1

S1 Wharf Area (Area No.1 in the above figure) was first developed. The white sand beach in this area is the most beautiful, and the seawater quality is the best. The famous "powder sand" is here. The hotels in S1 are basically high-end resort hotels with the highest quality and the most expensive price. If there are high-quality requirements for beaches, sea water, scenery and hotels, it is recommended to choose hotels in S1. Discovery

ShoresBoracay, the beach resort hotel where Fish Leong held the wedding, is located in the northernmost part of S1.

S2 pier area /Station2

S2 (see area 2 in the schematic diagram) is the most prosperous and lively area, which is the commercial center of the island, and facilities such as D'mall shopping center, restaurants, bars, shops, supermarkets and seafood markets are all here. The beach seawater quality in S2 is also good, and the hotel price is relatively close to the people, but it lacks the high-quality feeling of S1. There are many tourists who choose to stay in S2 regional hotels, which is a little noisy, especially at night. The most cost-effective friend recommends living in S2.

S3 wharf area /Station3

S3 (see area No.3 in the schematic diagram) was developed at the latest, mainly including some inns and homestays, and some affordable hotels, but mainly for tourists, and few people chose S3 for free travel. The sand on S3 beach is coarse, and the scenery is not as beautiful as the other two areas, but S3 is the main wharf for water activities, so you can choose to live here if you play with the sea, and it will be quieter at night.

On MountLuho

The central part of Boracay is Mount Luho (the area where the red Brapoh beach meets the green Yapak in the schematic diagram), and there are also many hotels on the hills that are not too high. Family-style apartment hotels are a feature of uphill hotels, and there are also commanding cliff hotels. If you like to watch the sea from a height, You can choose the mountain hotels north of Bulabog

Beach in Brapoh Beach, such as CohibaVillas and KarunaBoracay

Residences, which are occupied by many people. If it's young people, it's nothing to live down the mountain. It's not recommended to bring old people and children. After all, it's harder to take a sudden car with big and small suitcases.
