BORACAY



                Many of us want to swim every summer, it’s because it’s very hot right? But did you know what the best beach you can go is? Well I think its Boracay.
            Boracay is a small island in the Philippiness. This island and its beaches have received awards from numerous travel publications and agencies.  It  is also famous for being one of the world's top destinations for relaxation.
            White Beach is composed of three sections. The northernmost section – Station 1 – has the widest beachfront. This has the best (and most expensive) resorts and hotels.The center of White Beach is Station 2. People come here to eat, shop, and party.If you’re looking for a quieter area, then Station 3, the southernmost section, is for you.Because the waters off White Beach are calm during Amihanseason (November to May), tourism is at its peak during these months when the northeastern winds blow. Conditions reverse during the rainy season, when the Habagat or monsoon winds blow.
            They also have many activities like Diving and Snorkelling, Mandala Spa, Boracay scuba diving school, Tommy sea sport, so on and so forth. They also have different restaurants where you can eat what kind of food you want because they have Korean food, Japanese food, Visayan Food and many more.
