📍 Destination Overview
Boracay is a small resort island in the central Philippines, famed for a white-sand beach often called the world's most beautiful. Its western shore holds four kilometres of powdery sand, turquoise water and swaying palms, along a lively strip of resorts bright at night. Gliding across the sunset on a paraw sailboat is the classic experience, with island-hopping and snorkelling too.
