I just celebrated my 50th birthday at Boracay. It's definitely the best beach ⛱️ I've ever been to. The island tour was great, but me and my partner and I enjoyed the white sand beach the most at station 1 to 3. We will come back for sure.
Happy belated birthday! 🙌🏼🥳🎉
Agreed the beach is stunning!! 🇵🇭🙌🏼❤️
Lovely video...glad you lov3d Boracay
OMG YES!! Absolute paradise!🌴 Thanks for watching! 🇵🇭💖🥰🫶
I've been fortunate to go there during the off-peak season. Very little algae, less people to share the white beach with. It was paradise.
Awww you're so lucky! I can only imagine how amazing that would be. Thanks for watching! 🫶💖🥰🇵🇭
I’m glad you liked your experience in Boracay. I’m a Filipino and I really love coming back to Boracay every year since 2017. On June 8, 2024, I’m coming back for the 6th time in Boracay with my husband, dad and nephew to celebrate my dad’s birthday there. 😊
Nice!! I hope you’ve a great time going back to celebrate your Dads birthday 🙌🏼❤️🇵🇭
Of course its worth the hype, no wonder it is voted Best island in World 3 times.

Your beauty goes well with Boracay as your back drop.You vlog well showing the vibrant life in Boracay. I like the e tricycle thus limiting the noise in the area. I appreciate also, the good weather as I watched youngsters, wind surfers fanatics do their free style exercises with the cooperative waves of the season.
Thank you so much 🤗

Nice
Thank you 🇵🇭❤️
Been there twice love it
I wanna go again & again & again! Paradise 🏝️🙌🏼🇵🇭❤️
Since the reopening, Boacay now has a tourist cap on number of daily arrivals. If you have a hotel booking and youre in the sialnd, Great !
That’s good to know for future reference. Thanks a mil for watching. ❤️🫶🏼🙌🏼🇵🇭
I know you want to be positive, would be helpful to give the pros and cons. Great beach and sand, one of the best sunsets. Cons way too crowded, tricycle driver charging 5 to 10 time more than he should. Food mostly very good at a world class resort reasonable priced. Went a few times and it's time to checkout other resorts.
I grew up half of my childhood in boracay and used to always go to the beach with my cousins and swim. Living in Australia now and they have amazing beaches here but I still miss boracay sometimes.
I hope you get to go back soon and enjoy the Boracay beaches once again 🙌🏼🏝️❤️
I will coming in July ❤
Enjoy! 🌴
🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much! 💖🥰🫶🇵🇭
You need to travel to beaches along the Indian Ocean of Africa. Some of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever seen!😍 especially the more secluded areas.
Yes!! I would love to do this!! 💖💖
Yeah 👍 Boracay 🏝️🏖️👙🇵🇭
Thanks for watching. 🥰💖🙌🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
I love Boracay. And I agree... I never want to leave.
I already miss it 🥹🇵🇭❤️
Algae during summer is common in boracay.Best month to go ther without algae is from Oct. to December.
I really want to come to the Philippines in December! I’ve heard Christmas is amazing 🇵🇭🇵🇭❤️❤️
Try Palawan, El Nido, Coron.
El Nido is our next stop 🌴🫶💖
@@LaurenCotter you will love it there. Take care
@@LaurenCotter Best snorkeling experience I've had so far was in Coron. 😎🤙
❤❤❤
Thank you so much ❤️🫶🏼🙌🏼🥰🇵🇭
try adding this to your list, if you havent been there,. Coron, Batanes, Vigan, and Siargao
Thank you so much for all the recommendations 💖🥰🙌
amen
Thank you 💖
Thats a clearwater i can swim for hours very nice beach in the Philippines.
It sure is!
Boracay the beach itself is worth it.Whats behind it the shops ehh well eye sore.
I understand what you mean, but I did enjoy the fact I could get a coconut or coffee along the strip.
Live in BGC and fly out to the islands!
Thanks for watching! 🇵🇭💖🥰🫶
Being from Florida, I really liked Boracay. It has beauty it has nice people. The beaches were clean. I live on west side of Florida so it's nice to see clean beaches.
The one thing that bugged me. Was all the vendors especially at night. Every minute I was approached by some one either to eat in a restaurant, go sailing, sky diving, some toy they were trying to sell. Island hopping. Couod not just walk and enjoy was just solicited.
All over Florida's beaches all these options are available and not annoyed as I was with the vendors on the beach at boracay. At night there is no escape. Only bad experience though.
Plenty of food options . Plenty of hotels to choose from.
Ahhh I see how that can be annoying getting sold something every few metres. Thankfully, I didn't find that too bad during my stay; maybe the camera was a deterrent, haha! Thanks for watching 💖
Boracay is just - beach, nothing else. I suggest islands that has everything: white sand beaches, waterfalls, lagoons, springs, etc. Also, there is a certain freedom where you can just rent a scooter and just tour DIY style. Try smaller islands like Siquijor, Siargao, and Camiguin.
Thanks a mil for the recs ❤️🇵🇭🥰
@@LaurenCotter You're welcome. Enjoy PH
You gotta go to another island where there’s not a lot of tourist. Nacpan beach or go to north of Coron , Palawan.
I went to nacpan i prefer lio beach.Nacps is not developed it takes a bit of effort to get too as the roads is horrible and has zero facilities.
We went to Lio Beach in El Nido next and did a boat tour with plenty of cool beaches! Stay tuned for that video. Thanks for watching! 🇵🇭💖🥰🫶
it's algae season 💚
That explains it 🫶🏼🇵🇭
I love boracay ❤
Me too! 💖
boracay🎉🎉
🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
hello! lauren cotter how ARE YOU? WHERE YOU FROM
Hello! I'm amazing thanks a mil for asking. I hope you're good too? I'm from Ireland but I live in the UK.
then go to el nido and coron palawan
Thanks so much for all the recommendations 🙌🏼❤️🫶🏼🇵🇭🥰
Algae bloom will be gone after summer, june to Dec the water in boracay is clear.
Noted for future. Thanks for watching. 🥰💖🙌🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
The fact you Loved it was same company Jollibee and Mang inasal this a corporation owned by filipino's fast food chain pH 🇵🇭 also the American fastfood chains ( king burgers,greenwich, atbp)
That explains why! haha thanks for watching! 🫶💖🥰
Don"t miss a trip to Coron, Palawan.. you'll regret it.. 😁
..or El Nido, Palawan..
El Nido is next up 💖🌴🫶
Hello..
Hey Hey! 💖🥰🫶🇵🇭
Boracay has become over rated and has become too touristy IMO. You may want to visit other lesser known islands (Siargao, Coron, Romblon, Siquijor, Pagudpud, and even Quezon Province) that offesr the same, if not better, beach options for that instagramable pictures. If you don't want that over crowded beaches and commercial establishments and just want the serene silence of beautiful beaches, there are more places that you can discover in the Philippines.
Thanks so much for all the recommendations 🙌🏼❤️🫶🏼🇵🇭🥰
Boracay- my least favourite spot in the Philipiines. I can’t believe people think it’s that good compared to about 20 other destinations ( and more) ! Overcrowded, overpriced and pretty boring , but happy so many tourists go there to keep other secret gems less touristy!
Hahaha I can respect that, keep the hidden gems hidden. Thanks for watching. 🥰💖🙌🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Agree 100%. Bora is just beach and party. Nothing else. There are great islands that has white sand beaches, waterfalls, lagoons, springs, etc. Camiguin, Siquijor, and Siargao are examples that have everything and you can rent a scooter and go.
SEE CORON PALAWAN
Palawan is next on the trip! Stay tuned. Thanks for watching 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
El Nido or Coron or Amanpulo
Heading to El Nido next 🏝️❤️
Calamansi lots of Vitamin C
Ohh good to know! 🫶
You got to go island hopping
1000000%
Thanks for watching! 🇵🇭💖🥰🫶
Are you guys Irish?
I'm Irish and my partner is English 🥰
Expensive and over crowded. But on the must see list.
Thanks for watching. 🥰💖🙌🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
you're so funny and beautiful 😍
Awww thanks so much ❤️🥰🙌🏼🇵🇭
Fun fact: Jollibee owns Mang Inasal
Explains why I enjoy both haha! Thanks for watching 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
i think its algae season that's why so much algae now....
Ahh that explains it!
I say El Nido and Coron Palawan , way better.
El Nido is our next stop 👀 Thanks so much for watching 🙌🏼❤️🫶🏼🇵🇭🥰
LAHAT Pinoy nanonood
Thanks for watching! 🇵🇭💖🥰🫶
Tell you what, you still find a descent place and clean but not aesthetic nice for less than £42 .
The Beaches in the Philippines are all the same it's just a different island.
Stunning beaches everywhere, paradise 💖
Been there a few times & all i can say is .... OverHyped & a Tourist Trap. Want to enjoy a "Real" Paradise, go to Calaguas Island.....
Thanks for the recommendation 🫶🌴💖
it is not a hype, when the same is being said for decades. wrong word or phrasing.
No been there in 90s it is wasted now and fully overpriced
Oh no sorry you had that experience. I loved my time there!
typical tourist
🤷🏻♀️
I'm not a fan, it's such a hustle and over commercialization. Everyone is trying to overcharge you. Siargao and Siquior are far more Serene
Each to their own, I would've loved to visit Siargao, but didn't have enough time. But it's okay, it's my excuse to return to the Philippines.
Boring overhype and overrated.there are some more beautiful beaches than boracay in the philippines like in cebu palawan or bohol.
Palawan is our next stop! Can't wait to edit the video to show of it's beauty 🌴
Not worth the hype! Too pricey, vendors taking advantage everywhere. Would rather go to Vietnam or Thailand beaches.
I loved it but each to their own. I haven't been to Vietnam yet but I'm heading to Thailand for the 2nd time next week.
ice in your glass there is a big no no diareaa is coming lol
😂😂😂 thankfully that didn't happen. PHEW!
