How was Boracay?

Boracay is very interesting. The Boracay (also known as Pollack Island) is located in the central Philippines, south of Manila, at the northwest tip of Bannai Island, shaped like a dumbbell. The whole island is only 7 kilometers long, but there is a 4-kilometer-long white beach, which is known as "the finest beach in the world" and was once known as one of the seven beautiful beaches in the world.

In order to preserve the original features of the island, the local people didn't build a pier, so when tourists dock by boat, they will find that there is no pier for them to land, so they can only take off their shoes, roll up their trousers, carry their luggage and walk slowly to the shore in shallow water with 3 to 4 meters offshore. Boracay is an ideal place for water sports and an excellent place to relax on the beach. The style here is to abandon all bondage. Besides relaxing on the beach and having tropical parties at night, you can enjoy many activities here, such as boating, windsurfing, diving, mountaineering, hiking, mountain biking and even golf.

Boracay belongs to Malay Autonomous City in Aklan Province, and there are three villages (barabgays) in Boracay: Yapak in the north, Balabag in the middle and Munnoch-Munnoch in the south. The northern and southern parts of the island are hills, with an altitude of 1 meters, which are suitable for large-scale hiking. Countless winding paths sometimes connect small villages through tropical forests.
