The white beaches Boracay has, are
spread all around the island. They
can be divided into two basic areas,
the beaches on the eastern shore or
windward side of Boracay and the
western side which is the leeward
side of the island. The western side
beaches are sheltered from the wind
and are ideal for lazing around. This

most popular area and where the
