Spend a half-day island-hopping from Astoria Station 1 and sample Boracay’s quieter beaches, helmet diving for non-divers, and an adrenaline UFO ride, all with a premium buffet lunch included. This small-group run offers practical access to Ilig-Iligan, Crocodile Island, and Puka Beach.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The boat cuts a shallow wake as Boracay’s shoreline slides into view — a fringe of coconut trunks, white sand, and reef-stippled water that dares you to step off the ladder. On this four-to-five-hour island-hopping loop you trade the island’s busy White Beach for quieter bays: the remote sweep of Ilig-Iligan, the rock-strewn outcrop of Crocodile Island, and the shell-laced Puka Shore.
