Great post. I lived in the Philippines for a couple of years and never got to Boracay. Now I know what I missed. Hope to get back there some day.

All true! Done all this and the beach is amazing. The locals are wonderful – they’ve never been anywhere else. Best way to Boracay IS via Caticlan. Very easy really – an adventure! Stayed at Fridays Resort. Easy to book it all yourself. Best to go in high season otherwise a little windy … and beach bars are closed or at least their front openings to the sand are. Water is amzing colour too. Cheap to eat and play, however no real local cuisine-unless you like fish heads and fatty pork knuckles. Buy yr BYO wine to take the dinner at the bottle shop – our restaurant offered us a bottle of ancient hot white when we requested red wine with dinner!

Interesting. I remember visiting Manila and feeling quite intimidated by the place, but I had a great time visiting the countryside (sorry I can’t remember any of the names). Unfortunately I never saw the beaches but it sounds like I should be planning a trip soon, maybe during Easter. Shall check flight prices…
