Boracay is located in the middle of the Philippines, at the northwest end of Bannai Island, and looks like a dumbbell. The whole island is only 7 kilometers long, but there are 4 kilometers of white beaches, which are known as "the finest beaches in the world". Snow-white beaches, blue waters and warm sunshine make Boracay a famous holiday resort. There are many resorts and bars, and tourists from all over the world spend one long day after another by the beach. The hills with an altitude of no more than 100 meters in the north and south of the island meander through the rainforest and connect the villages, which is an easy and interesting hiking route.
Boracay has a tropical maritime climate, and its administrative division belongs to Akron province in the western Visayas. According to the development order, it is divided into S 1, S2 and S3, and there are also scenic spots such as Yapak and Tabang.
Boracay is the most famous beach in the Philippines and one of the "seven beautiful beaches in the world", which is famous for its unique white sand as fine as flour.
On April 4, 20 18, the Philippine government announced that the Boracay in the Philippines would be closed from April 26, 20 18 to carry out environmental improvement for half a year.
Extended data:
Boracay, once known as one of the seven beautiful beaches in the world, is a long and narrow island. Since it was developed at the end of 1970, it is still an attractive holiday resort in Southeast Asia. Every peak season, tourists eager for sunshine and blue sea come from all over the world to enjoy a leisure holiday full of surprises and joy. Relax and enjoy a relaxing massage on the beach. There is never a shortage of masseurs on this island to provide massage services by the sea.
Boracay's sea water is clear and transparent, and it looks like a liquid gem under the sunlight. I'm afraid the most rare thing about Boracay is its length and width. It is like a bone, big at both ends and narrow in the middle. The narrowest place is only about one kilometer. Because of this, opposite scenes often appear on both sides of the island with different wind directions.
So I saw this scene-the west of the island where the small hotel is located, the sea is as gentle as a virgin, and most tourists are playing and relaxing on this windless side. However, in the east of the island, the white waves are surging, and the surfers are stepping on the sampan and dragging huge sea kites to fight in the waves, just like dragging a large group of colorful meniscus flying in the air. Extremely comfortable, there are more than a dozen surfers on the sea, more than people on the shore. This is really a paradise for holidays.
Westerners come to Boracay for the beach and sunshine. They stayed in the sun all day and their skin was tanned. Orientals, on the other hand, most people don't want to be exposed to the sun, and they don't want to wear hats and umbrellas, because the skin of orientals is particularly easy to get tanned. However, Filipinos who come to Boracay for vacation are not afraid of the sun. The original secret is that they use local coconut oil to protect their skin.
Few buildings in Boracay are more than three stories, hidden under coconut groves, giving people a strange comfort. Many people who come to Boracay for holiday are family-style groups. They stayed for a week, and even the hotel saw this feature. There are both big beds and small beds in the family room. Reminiscent of previous trips, people travel from one scenic spot to another and spend most of their time on wheels, which is another kind of fatigue when they come back from travel. Boracay changed people's ideas. It makes people feel at ease and live in isolation on a spotless island for a few days.
