hello gaiss,

I'm going Boracay next month 21-26, wanted to ask for advice what to do there other than my ideas below

- helmet diving, ariel's point, parasailing etc

and i really need some recommendations on food. (the must eat in boracay) and also a decent place for our 3rd year anniversary.

and for the island hopping (to crystal cove/puka beach), is people who have motion sickness able to to that?

Thanks a lot!!

helmet diving abit boring cus cannot walk too far, only some fishes and plenty of dead coral. everyone doing helmet diving will be at the same place, just different vendor, they will do a VCD and photos for u

can try flying fish, more trill than banana boat.

during sunset, go for the traditional boat ride into the sea, the view very nice.

food wise along station 1, 2 plenty of dinner buffet places. The most popular one I seen is Sea Breeze Café - dinner al fresco on the sandy beach with live band singing. The café staffs will do mass singing and dancing performance at intervals. overheard ah tiong tour grp say best in boracay.
go early cus no reservation allowed, about 800 peso

never did island hoping tho.

The local touts will do whatever it takes to prevent the real operator from dealing with u.. cus u don't speak their language and foreigners are meant to be chop carrot.

Most prob u have to go thru the touts, u must slash their quote by 70% min..

If u feeling confident that u can do it by yourself, the operators for the activities are at station one, got tents.. there's an alley nearby that offers better exchange rate than sg, only 1 shop, can be hard to find.

Take care when they give u change, their old notes cannot be used anymore and they still circulate it, I think the due date for changing ended .. I collected like 300 sgd worth of old notes , luckily can go bank change during my stay there on jan
