Boracay Island Activities

Hiring a motorbike or bicycle driver to explore the island is an opportunity to experience the native villages and scenery that most visitors don’t get to see. For nature lovers, Boracay has a few hiking and trekking routes to its peak elevation. Alternatively, horse riding on the beach is often a favorite activity among visitors here.

Equipment for water sports activities such as jet skiing, windsurfing, parasailing and more are available for rent at stores along Bulabog and White Beach. Also, there are many mobile stalls or roaming vendors on the beach that offer snorkeling, diving and boat trips around the island at reasonable cost.

This is one of the best ways to explore the island since there are other scenic beaches on other side of the island that are better for swimming, snorkeling, and relaxing.

The main road on White Beach has several shops that hire out bicycles and motorbikes for travellers at reasonable cost.As usual, costs drop when hiring them for a couple of days.

Also, most shops offer maps of the island and purchasing one might be a good idea. Recommended destinations are: Puka Shell Beach, Bulabog Beach, and La-puz La-puz Beach.

The major and most famous golf course in Boracay is Fairway & Bluewater Resort Golf & Country Club.

Designed by Graham V. Marsh, this Par 72, 18-hole golf course offers avid golfers a truly amazing challenge amidst rolling green fairways, lagoon blue water and incredible panoramic ocean views.

All beginners are advised to hire a knowledgeable guide or to take part in one of the organised tours available. Some tour packages also include whitewater rafting in the program – highly recommended.

Taking out one of the locally bred horses and riding through a cool coconut grove on Boracay is an experience that cannot be forgotten.
