Of course you’ll go swimming and enjoy the great resorts but did you know that there are a lot of other things you can do in this beautiful island? So read on and take note of the top things to do in Boracay!

Strolling along the beach in barefoot

1.    Take a barefoot stroll along the beach – Boracay is known for its powdery white sands so there’s no greater way to appreciate it than by a barefoot walk! The feeling of warm fine sand is great and somehow relaxing.  Just make sure it’s in the morning or in the late afternoon or evening though as the sand is too hot during mid day.

Jonah's Milkshake

2.    Grab a refreshing milkshake from Jonah’s. They are located at Station 1 and they are known for the best tasting milkshakes in the island. One of their best sellers is the Banana-Choco-Peanut for Php110.

Henna Tatoo

3.    Get a henna tattoo! Just be sure it’s fully dried before going back to your hotel as this may form stains on bed covers/sheets when wet. The hotels are very strict about this and charge a huge amount for stained bedding due to hennas.

Massage by the beach

4.    Relax a little by getting a massage by the beach for Php350.
