(Boat shot on White Beach)
Boracay was awarded in the “Travelers’ Choice 2011″ by TripAdvisor as the second best beach in the world. Boracay made a debut appearance on the Top 10 Islands list in the Travel + Leisure travel magazine World’s Best Awards 2011, ranking fourth.
Boy, have I been spoilt? For the last 5 days. I’ve been lying on the beautiful beaches of Boracay, tanning and tanning into a slightly alarming, yet wonderful shade of Lobster lol. My body’s been fueled mostly by fried chicken and various mango/banana/papaya/pineapple blends. And I think I’ve stored enough Vitamin D for the rest of the year!
We stayed at the beautiful Nami Resort on Diniwid Beach in their Suite Ocean View room. I might blog more about the hotel later but for now all I can say is that its very different to your regular hotel, the staff is personable, customer service is A++, it’s quiet and secluded – I love love LOVE its private beach! It was exactly what I wanted for a resort holiday. Although Nami Resort‘s cliff-side structure meant there were a lot of stairs, I found no problem to it. As long as I’m mobile, I would definitely stay there again!
White Beach is the main tourist beach on Boracay. They didn’t have to try very hard with the name of the beach because the sand was, well, white. Hence I suppose the name? I don’t know, Wikipedia might prove me wrong or whatever lol. It covered from what I saw, a good portion of the island, with miles and miles of white sand, and equal amount of clear, torque waters.
Excuse me while I get lost in flash backs *dreamy look*
White beach was a short shuttle bus trip from Nami Resort for us. The resort provided free drop off and pick up shuttle services across the island which was awesome! Plus 2 points for the hotel. It’s pretty tame in the day time with your everyday old-men-in-speedos, painfully lobstered and charcoal colored chicks, local hustlers. But when the sun starts to go down, EVERYONE comes out, and the entire beach side turns into a massive party spot. Just look at the amount of people behind me in the last photo!
I have way more photos to come, but for now I need to recover from the hell of a trip back to Sydney D:

AH. Such amazing photos of a gorgeous beach *A* I love how crisp everything is!! LOBSTERS ARE DELICIOUSSSSSSSSSS!!!
Hahahaha lobsters ARE delicious! *noms on own arm*
I’ve never been to Boracay, but would love to go there one day. It looks absolutely beautiful and relaxing something I need. I’m not full on heat, but obviously it’s a beach. I guess I’d sacrifice to view this beautiful location
Aww, you’re missing out on beach holidays then. Boracay in Jan is actually very perfect because its their winter season, there is the heat during mid day, but most of the times there is a constant cool breeze. Highly recommended
Oh wow. Call me 6 shades of jealous! That is such a beautiful place!
Beautiful photos! Were you able to tour other parts of the Philippines besides Boracay? Looks like you had a blast!
We briefly went to the main land, but otherwise just lazed about the beach
Looks like heaven 0.0!! You know, “nami” means “yummy” in finnish
I think it’s a sign!
No I didnt know that! Thats very interesting, thanks
