Most of the hotels and other accommodations are located in White Beach. To make it easy for visitors to identify the area, the 4 kilometre beach front has been divided into Boat Stations. A foot path connects the whole beach front. Always know the Boat Station where the hotel or accommodation is located. There are three Boat Stations (1,2,3) found in White Beach.
Station 1 is situated at the north western part of the island. This is where the world-class hotels can be found. A lot of these hotels offer services onsite and have direct access to the beach. The footpath ends in this station and to get back to the central area, one has to follow the beach front. A main road can be found at the back of the hotels which can be one comfortable way to go to other places in the island.
Station 2 is the entertainment hub of Boracay. D’Mall can be found in this area and houses small tourist shops. Restaurants and night spots are also in this station. The area also has its share of high end resorts and hotels but budget accommodations have sprouted too. Most tourists flock to this area for shopping, food and fun during night time.
Station 3’s development came a bit later but hotels and bungalows can now be found in this area. This station is away from the crowd and action thus offers a relaxing atmosphere. Value accommodations can also be found in the area.
Less than a kilometre from While Beach is Bulabog Beach. During the months of November to April, people flock to this part of Boracay for windsurfing and kite boarding. It is just 10 minutes away from White Beach. There are now hotels and resorts that cater specifically to the wind sports community. Bulabog Beach is aptly called “The No. 1 Kite Boarding Beach in Asia”.
Not known to many visitors to the island are the Off Boracay areas. Most do not venture out of White Beach but there are awesome beach fronts and small islands that divers should visit. Hotels and resorts can also be found in these areas. For those who want peace and quiet then this is the area for you.
