Ya including watersports, intend to feast on seafood if possible hehe. Coz heard the rates there not good / scared cannot change SGD. But dnw to bring too much excess also

i cant remember how much i changed.. i think safely 400-500 should be enough... food there not very expensive.. watersports depends on what kind of activities you do loh.. ariel's point not cheap because it's one full day inclusive of journey + lunch + beer + activities (like cliff diving and kayaking and snorkeling)..

if you wanna parasail, look for DIAMOND company.. the one with the Superman logo.. theirs is the biggest.. and they fly higher too... can check with them their prices for other watersports and bargain with them

as mentioned, watersports like parasail, ariel's point cliff diving, stand up paddle, sunset sailing and more... can also do island-hopping... if you like to club, can join their pubcrawl.. got free shots and cheap drinks while you hop to 5 different clubs...

other than that, can just nua on the beach!! very shiok one!

came back from boracay and spent $250 (didn't bother to haggle a lot, believe can be a lot cheaper haha)

boracay - ariel's point and pubcrawl was highlight of my trip! jonah's, talipapa and sunnyside cafe(station3) was amazing also.

@chikyblink dunno how much time you spending at other places, but one day ariel's point -> dinner at talipapa, one day walk around the beach and pubcrawl is the minimum!!! traveling to boracay takes quite awhile also tho.

I've already scrapped my previous plans because I've discovered El Nido!
Took a flight to Manila, switch to a small private plane company called ITI Transvoyager that took me straight to El Nido.
Gotta spend 4 days here doing island hopping, then take a 6hrs van ride to Puerto Princesa and spend 3 days there. Then take the plane to Boracay for my last stop.

U Shd research on what u wanan do at each places.

Do u wan a rush trip or relaxing trip ....

Cebu : has like oslob to swim with whale shake. Another "state" with canyoneering ... Not sure if I spell correctly. Where u spend 1 day go along river n jumping into waterfall. Also has swimming or diving with sardines ... Cebu City not sure if u wanna visit...

Bohol: some pple like to go river boat ride... But depends on individual. Many go islands hopping... Snokelling n diving... U Shd see which island u guys wanna stay.

Totally agree.... For mine, the highlight would be flying fish activity, the seashell beach, talipapa n pubcrawl....
Highly recommend head to talipapa for seafood but please bargain else kanna chop for sure.... Pubcrawl definitely a must, very happening there one with cheap alcohol n free shots...
And of coz beach lazing definitely a must..... best to get a hotel which have their own deck chairs else prepare to pay for those adhoc deck chairs along the beach...
