 | Boracay Island Transportation | Tips 1 - 10 of 141 |  | Popular Transportation | Miscellaneous Transportation Tips | All Tips (141) Paraws are native sailing boats made from wood and bamboo. This particular kind of sailboat is found only in the Western Visayan region of the Philippines. The design has changed very little over the centuries, and although they were originally used for fishing, enterprising Boracay sailors can now take you on sightseeing and snorkeling tours around the island. This is without a doubt the best way to explore the beaches of Boracay - it's so much more peaceful & relaxing than a motorised banca boat. The absence of a keel means that these versatile little boats can sail in very shallow water, and even pull up on the shore so that you can explore deserted coves and go snorkeling.

There are 2 ways of getting to Boracay. One is to take the small planes from Manila to Caticlan. The other is to take the bigger planes from Manila to Kalibo and then take a van to Caticlan. The 1.5 land hour trip costs P85/person. From Caticlan, all Boracay-bound visitors need to take a 15-20 minute boat ride. The boat ride costs P89.50/person broken down into: P20 terminal fee, P19.50 boat ride, and P50 environmental fee. However, the boat ride coming back costs only P19.50/person.

A pedicab is a little bicycle with a sidecar attatched. Good for two people - or one large person! These are popular on the White Beach path, where motorised tricycles are not permitted. Prices really do seem to vary according to the driver and the distance. Around P20/P30 per person is normal for a short ride. If you hit a patch of soft sand, have the decency to get out and walk for a few feet - it's really hard for the driver to pedal through it with you aboard. Be sure to agree the price first before you get in. Leave a Comment Theme: Other
