Detailed itinerary

Puka Beach is a stretch of white sand in the northern tip of the island away from the busy and crowded Boracay Stations 1, 2 and 3. Why is it called as such? It is where you'll find the rare puka shells in Boracay. Puka shells originally were naturally occurring bead-like objects which could be found in some beaches.

Ilig-iligan Beach, Boracay Island Philippines. ... It is a quaint little beach located at the North-east coast of the island. This beach is secluded, but accessible by road via motorbike, bicycle or hiking. There are no establishments present like those on White Beach and is perfect for picnic.

Willy's Rock is a castle-like volcanic formation that dominates the seascape along White Beach. Facing the beach are stairs leading to a chapel at the top, which contains a statue of the Virgin Mary.

Mount Luho is the highest point in Boracay and one of the tourist attractions that rises up to an altitude of 100 meters above sea level. It is a small mountain with a viewing deck and one can get an amazing view of the east coast from of the island.

Tambisaan Beach. Tambisaan Beach serves as an alternative entry point to Boracay during stormy weather. The beach spans about 500 meters of coarse white sand, and marks the jump-off to nearby snorkeling and scuba diving destinations such as those surrounding Crocodile Island and Crystal Cove Island.
