The Isla Boheme Guide to Boracay

It's summer! And once again we're expecting loads of visitors in the island. Come, come and share the sunshine and sea breeze. And to make your stay a more pleasant one, here's a little list of friendly tips. :-)

We've heard too much stories of demanding señoritos and señoritas. Be kind to your resort staff and they just might go the extra mile for you. Plus give you tips on cool events and places ;-)

The island is known for its pristine white sand, so let's keep it that way. Do Boracay a favor and keep your bottles, cigarette butts and food wrappers in your bags until you see a trash can. Lots of them are lined up by the beach walk.

This one is for those who pay too much on tricycle fare. Don't be fooled by drivers who expect clueless tourists. Then again, we still recommend walking the beach - great exercise and environmentally-friendly. :-)

It's always safer to keep your hands away from the driver, so you do not pull him away from the handle in case anything happens. Plus, it makes the driver feel weird.

A trip to Boracay doesn't always have to be all night drinking and partying. Try something that makes the good feeling last longer. Sunset paddle boarding and yoga are one of the locals' favorites.

That's basically it. Hope you share these tips with friends or family coming over. So that both the residents and tourists have a super summer! See you soon!
