By iCheapAirfares Staff: If you are looking for an experience a little more laid back than Manila, perhaps a trip to Boracay will delight you. It is an idyllic Pacific Island paradise where visitors can play in the sun and surf by day and dine and dance by night. Boracay is an excellent value for those looking for a tropical island vacation, perhaps even a honeymoon.
On the west coast of the island, beautiful white sand beaches with shallow waters await travelers. The east coast has deeper waters where visitors can take part in various water sports. For those not interested in getting wet, there is horseback riding on the beach, volleyball games (the World Beach Volleyball Tournament is held here every September) - or simply lying on the beach sipping a refreshing cocktail.
Excellent resorts (i.e. Red Coconut Resort, Boracay Regency Beach Resort) offer luxurious accommodations and access to the variety of activities this amazing island offers. For active tourists, windsurfing, parasailing, snorkeling, diving, mountain biking and sailing can all be enjoyed. For those looking for something more relaxing, many of the resorts offer spas, pools with floating bars and excellent dining.
After an enjoyable day of water sports or simply lying by the water, an active nightlife awaits visitors. Beachfront restaurants serve fresh seafood. The cuisine is international. American, Italian, French, Chinese, Japanese, Mexican, Thai and of course Filipino restaurants abound. After dinner, dancing is a must at one of the many bars (i.e. Bazura, Tawo Bar) on the island. Go!
