Breathtaking Boracay - If you want to see the beautiful white sand and sparking waters of Boracay, you can travel from Manila to Caticlan by plane. If you are from the Visayas or Mindanao, a boat or plane trip to Iloilo City, then by bus (5 hours) to Caticlan, then take the small pumpboats for Boracay; you would not miss it.
