When
one hears the word Boracay, the first thing that comes in mind is
sugary and powdery white sand, then partying and relaxing. Boracay is a
small island in the province of Aklan, Philippines, known for its
powder-like white sand and crystal-clear blue water. It receives a lot
of awards from travel publications and agencies. It has become very
popular among locals and tourists.

There are 2 jump-off points going to Mt. Pico de Loro. One is at Ternate Highway in Cavite and the other one is at Nasugbu in Batangas. The most taken trail is the one in Cavite since it's easier. For us, we did both, going there via Cavite and going back via Batangas.
If you are planning on exploring Mr. Pico de Loro, here's how to get there via Ternate, Cavite.

This century old church located at Brgy. Poblacion, Tangalan, Aklan was built through hard and forced labore. It was finished after 28 years of suffering and sacrifices from the people of Tangalan
Our last stop for our day tour is a visit to the Bakhawan (Mangroves) Eco-Park in New Buswang, Kalibo, Aklan. If you want a change of scenery and get closer to nature, pay a visit here.
Our first stop during our day tour in Kalibo is the AFGA Wave Rock Formation. I've checked the pictures posted in the website to see if it's worth seeing and I thought, why not, we're going to be there anyway.
Since our flight going back to Manila is through the Kalibo Airport, we decided on spending a night at Kalibo and explore the hidden jewels of the town. I've been to Boracay already so I'm not too keen to see it.
Our first stop in Kalibo is the famous Sampaguita Gardens Resort. Recognized as a major landmark in Travel and Industry in Kalibo. It's one of the investments that helped establish the municipality of New Washington.
This restaurant is located along the path of the White Beach and it really looks simple from outside. Nothing spectacular and I'm sure the very last choice on the list of almost everyone. But don't be deceived.
Ever since the island became famous, there are a lot of hotels popped out like mushrooms everywhere.
If you want a luxurious accommodation you can choose from a lot of 5-star hotels. Or if you want to save money on activities and food, you can choose from a lot affordable lodgings.
Hotel rates depends on where it's located. Below are the 2 hotels that I tried so far.
