Boracay (June 2007)

I escaped from HK to Boracay on my birthday. This beautiful palm studded island is located at the northwestern tip of Panay in Western Visayas, south of Manila.
I took a propeller plane from Manila to Caticlan (about an hour), followed by a 15 minute boat-ride from Caticlan’s jetty port to Boracay’s jetty port. One thing that I didn’t quite expect was when I disembarked, I needed to jump into the water and waded ashore, hence the lower part of my body got soaking wet. What a special way of landing!
The most beautiful part of this tropical island is its 4 kilometer "White Beach", which has pristine, white powdery sand and azure water. I enjoyed walking on the beach as it felt like treading on miles of talcum power.
During my stay, I went sailing, island hopping (e.g. crocodile island, Coral Cave) and snorkeling. Whilst snorkeling, vision was everything. The undersea creatures and corals which greeted my eyes were colourful, gorgeous and fascinating. I regret that I didn’t have my waterproof camera with me!
Boracay is definitely the perfect island getaway!
