Trip to Boracay, Philippines

The Island you never want to leave.
Philippines is an Island country. It consists of 7641 Islands. Perfect white beaches, lagoons, caves, coral reefs and sand bars makes the island beautiful. One of the best place in Southeast Asia. The place I want to Visit again.
It was really expensive trip when compare to my other trips. Check the season before you plan your trip. In rainy season everything will be cheap including flight but you can explore only less things. On Arrival Visa for Indians who are Traveling from Japan , who have valid Japan Visa to come back .Here my journey begins....It was 4days and 3 nights trip. spent lovely time in the Sun, Sea and Sand.It took 50 mins from Manila to Caticlan Airport Aklan. 
From Caticlan Airport to Boracay hotel it took another 40 mins journey via small boat like below and then Road Transport. Boracay consists of 3 stations. Station 1 is pleasant and many private resorts are located, Station 2 is really for people who likes to party and shopping. Station 3 is popular for water sport and pleasant place to stay and relax.
Station 1, Willy’s Rock in the white beach. During low tide you can just walk to Willy’s Rock
It was really beautiful sunset, with bars on the other side. If you want to make Sunset romantic, order some drink and relax in any shop which is on the beach side.
I also recommend Sunset Parah Sailing or Paraw sailing both was good
Try some Temporary Henna Tatoos just for 100 Pesos, it stayed for around 2 weeks.
Enjoyed my local travel in bike, try something local
We stayed in Station 2, the below sunset was take just outside of the hotel, All pictures were picture perfect, you don’t need to edit any pictures
 
Just to help the kids, we accepted the offer of writing our name in sand.
Make people happy and be happy :)
 If you know to Bargain, you can get cheap deals. You have to be bit careful because some people offers you high price for any activities. 
Apart from water sports you can do Island hopping. In my Trip I enjoyed visiting Puka Beach, Crystal cove Beach with yummy buffet lunch just for 500 pesos.
This was really like heaven in the earth, white sandy beach with blue water and crowded very less
 
After visiting Puka Beach, my next destination was Crystal Cove Island
Here one can enjoy visiting 2 coves, it is better to be in swim wear, little scary too, then you can enjoy small trekking in the below area. 
Interesting Things: 
Work by MARI-IT, these are made of Monkey, dog and deer skulls.
Can leave your husband in Day Care Center.
 
Get your hair braided, within 15 mins you can get the style you wanted, they are so fast in doing that. Of course it was little painful.
 
Tried some challenging activities like Helmet diving, Parasailing and scuba etc. of course how come beach with pampering yourself so tried massage, fish pedicure etc.
Parasailing, yeah you feel like up up in the air, 15 mins really awesome, be careful while landing 
 
The Dive which made me to set my diving license goal, really different world and no sound except your breathing sound. I really appreciate my trainer for the effort of teaching us. I am sure he motivated me to set my goal in diving.
Here comes Food:
Philippines BBQs are always recommended, yummy lechon
Crispy Lechon served with pumpkin sauce

If you are ready to Travel do not forget your Eye gear, cap and sunscreen lotion
