3. Explore and have fun.
Boracay is a small island that covers only about 10 square kilometers according to It’s More Fun in the Philippines 2021 by the Philippine Department of Tourism, so it is fairly easy to explore. The best way to enjoy the sea breeze and the breathtaking scenery of the island is by walking by the beach, but there are also e-trikes and pedicabs available on the main road. Discover other nearby beaches by embarking on an island-hopping adventure and see the colorful aquatic fauna by snorkeling and scuba diving. There are also other exciting recreational activities like parasailing, banana boat riding, and jet skiing.
If you want more laid-back activities, Astoria Boracay has a pristine swimming pool where you can swim, a fitness center where you can exercise, and an in-room massage service where you can end your day with a rejuvenating massage.
