Boracay Island - Philippines Top Tourist Destination

Boracay Island is a miniature island in the central Philippines. Tiny Boracay is the Philippines' top tourist draw. It's known for its resorts and beaches. Along the west coast, White Beach is backed by palm trees, bars and restaurants. The influx of visitors caused the Philippines government to temporarily close Boracay to tourists for six months.  This Boracay Island ‘rehabilitation’ period was used to restore the island to its former glory.

The Boracay Island center of the action is dreamy White Beach, a 4km, postcard-perfect stretch of sand lined from one end to the other with hotels, restaurants, bars and dive shops several blocks deep. The beach path is typically awash with visitors, including large groups of package tourists. The ocean is full of romantic paraws (an outrigger sailboat) giving rides; colorful parasails fill the air.  

The Boracay Island perfect sunsets, live music breaks out, and fire dancers twirl their batons.  On the east coast, strong winds make Bulabog Beach a hub for water sports. Nearby, the observation deck on Mount Luho offers panoramic views over the island. Offshore, coral reefs and shipwrecks are home to diverse marine life. The Boracay Island has reopened with new rules and regulations in place to protect the island from over development. Not all businesses were allowed to reopen.
