You push off from Boat Station 1 and the coastal bustle of Boracay slips astern—sea spray and the thump of the outboard set the rhythm. Islands rise out of a flat horizon: limestone fingers, coral shoulders and narrow sands that invite quick forays into warm, clear water. The guide points out the day's route; your boat becomes the lens through which the island chain reveals itself.

You push off from Boat Station 1 and the coastal bustle of Boracay slips astern—sea spray and the thump of the outboard set the rhythm. Islands rise out of a flat horizon: limestone fingers, coral shoulders and narrow sands that invite quick forays into warm, clear water. The guide points out the day's route; your boat becomes the lens through which the island chain reveals itself.
Geology here is simple and visible: shallow reefs fringing volcanic and coralline outcrops, white shell-sand beaches formed by broken coral, and small islets like Crocodile Island that act as snorkeling magnets. Culturally, Malay town on Panay has been a long-time trading hub; Boracay’s beach economy grew in the last 50 years from local fishery to international tourism hotspot, shaping the services and menus you’ll find at lunch.
Expect two to three snorkeling stops tailored to season—Coral Garden, Starfish Garden or Puka Beach—plus a short, high-adrenaline UFO ride that lifts and spins over sea spray. After lunch on Tabon/Tabon Beach, try the hot kawa bath: a traditional warming soak in a heated wooden tub scented with herbs and flowers, intended to relax sore muscles.
Practical notes: boats run 5–6 hour tours, bring reef-safe sunscreen, a waterproof phone case, and a light rash guard for sun and chafing on the UFO. Snorkeling gear and life jacket are provided, but know your limits on the UFO ride. Morning departures avoid afternoon chop; carry cash for tips and small beach stalls. With basic fitness and common-sense water awareness, this is an accessible, full-day way to sample Boracay’s reefs, beaches and offbeat spa culture.
Yes—basic snorkeling equipment and individual life jackets are included for the tour.
A hot kawa bath is a warm herbal soak in a heated wooden tub heated by fire below; operators monitor temperature and it’s generally safe, but disclose medical conditions when booking.
Most operators allow anyone meeting basic health criteria; the ride is intense—notify staff of motion sickness or heart issues beforehand.
Pickup may be offered; the operator requests full hotel details in advance—confirm when booking and note the 16-hour cutoff for changes.
