Beyond White Beach, Boracay has rocky coves and reefs that are best seen from the water. This island hopping trip by motor boat mixes snorkeling, beaches and viewpoints.
Typical itinerary
- Snorkeling on reefs near Crocodile Island, with colorful fish in shallow water.
- Visit to Crystal Cove Island, with its caves and viewpoints (entry included).
- Swim stop at Puka Shell Beach or a quiet beach in the north.
- Free time depending on sea conditions.
Who it is for
For families, couples and groups. Snorkeling is easy and the crew gives a basic briefing. Non-swimmers can join with a life jacket.
What to bring
Swimwear, towel, reef-safe sunscreen, water shoes and cash for drinks.
Best time
November to May. With the amihan wind the boat usually leaves from the sheltered coast; the order of stops may change depending on swell.
Good to know: Boracay has strict environmental rules since its rehabilitation: no smoking or drinking on the beach and no littering. Operators use authorised mooring areas to protect the coral. Departure is usually in the morning, with hotel pick-up or a meeting point at the indicated Station. We confirm the exact time the evening before, depending on sea conditions, and suggest arriving 15 minutes early.
