Bound for Boracay

After an awesome time in Panglao, it was time to say goodbye and head for Boracay. It took a little bit of planning to get to Boracay.

Firstly we took a taxi to the ferry terminal at Tagbiliran, and then a two hour ferry over to Cebu. We stayed the night in Cebu and met up with one of Vela's ex-colleagues from Williams corp for dinner which was nice.

The following day we took a taxi to the airport and flew to Caticlan. On arrival we jumped into a side-car motorbike which delivered us to the ferry terminal. The ferry terminal was a little frustrating as you had to buy three separate tickets to board the boat; one being a terminal fee, another being an environmental fee, and finally the actual boat ticket... And each one has a separate counter. Not the most streamlined process.

We arrived in Boracay and jumped in a tuktuk to our air bnb. We got a little lost on the way and our driver didn't know either as it isn't a main resort, so we ended up having to walk an extra 10 minutes after our tuktuk dropped us off. But our bnb is spacious and very nicely decorated, so it was all worth it in the end.

We spent the afternoon/evening walking on the beach. Enjoying the super white and super soft sand, as well as the local outrigger boats sailing up and down the shore. Most of the vehicles here are electric, and the sailing boats fit very nicely into the aesthetic. We enjoyed a couple of nice meals on the beach, as well as happy hour. Looking forward to chilling out and relaxing here for a few days!Baca lagi
