Boracay: Day 3

Our third day at Boracay is to tour Boracay on a boat.


Before 7AM, my niece and I were already at the Receiption to inquire on the boat that would take us island-hopping. It seems our earlier inquiries upon arrival about this has not been finalized. Thus, went to the fishermen's houses to talk to Aling Juana for a possibility of looking for another boat that would take us on tour. I was already talking with Aling Juana about it when my niece called that everything is a-OK. Tsk! Tsk! Should have cancelled the arrangements with The Panoly. Thus, just ordered our dinner from Aling Juana.

Willy's Rock

On our way to Crystal Cove, passed by White Beach where we saw Willy's Rock at Station 1.

The trip to Crystal Cove island is exciting because of the big waves. One feels like riding a roller coaster.

Crystal Cove


There's a PhP 150.00 entrance fee at Cyrstal Cove. One can spend the day swimming and have a picnic at this island. But, we came to see the two caves where crystals were formed due to the hitting of the water on the walls of the caves. There is also a mini-zoo.

Crocodile Island

If my niece was decided to do some snorkeling, we would have gone to Crocodile Island. It is named as such because the island looks like a crocodile.

Thus, instead of snorkeling, we decided to go to Puka Beach to have our early lunch there. On the way there, one can see the Carabao Island. It is named as such because when viewed from the airplane, it looks like the back of a carabao (water buffalo). That is according to Eli, our tour guide/boatman.

The food is delicious, what with the fresh fish and crab. Added liempo with our meal. After the hearty lunch, proceeded back to The Panoly for a well-deserved rest.

(To be continued...)



(...Continuation)

While my niece slept, I watched Star Mandarin on cable... waiting for 5PM where we would be taking a banana boat ride. At 4:50PM, went to the beachfront to wait for our ride.


The ride was fun, fun, fun. It was so fast that water keeps splashing on us. And my niece who never rode one really enjoyed it. In fact, she still wanted to have another go.

We would be having dinner at 7PM and a dip in the pool after. Then, we would be packing our things before calling it a night as we should be checking out around 6AM.


So, before 7PM, we were already on our way to Aling Juana to enjoy the garlic prawn and liempo. My niece and I were able to finish half-kilo of each.

Since it is our last night at The Panoly, checked out Cafe Havana. Finally, my niece treated me with a mango shake! Hehehe!

While enjoying my drink, it rained. Waited at Cafe Havana, hoping that it would stop so that we can go back to our room. Since it seems it won't let, borrowed an umbrella from Cafe Havana.

Our plan to go swimming after dinner? Kaput! c",)
