Plan the Perfect Sailing Vacation in Boracay 

Not an itinerary but a checklist that you can follow!

  1. First things first – Book a yacht charter in Boracay 

Get the number of people you have, and book the yacht accordingly. Most yachts have a shared cabin with separate berths. You can book catamarans, sailboats, motor boats, etc. This is a great way to start a vacation plan and then check the details further.

**Do you know which time for a sailing vacation in Boracay (Philippines) is best? The peak season is from October to May, and the off-peak time is from June to November. The prices are a little high during the peak season, but you can do more activities.

  1. Activities you must try

When it comes to a sail vacation, you can have the luxury of designing your itinerary. Moreover, the yacht will help you to get boat rentals in Boracay (Philippines) for travelling, or help you with the best contacts to try out some thrilling activities. There are 6 activities that you must try here.

  1. Banana boat

Though it is common, trying it in the Philippines, Boracay makes it worthwhile! The price for one banana boat ride, which carries around 6 people, will be around P250.

  1. Scuba diving

With proper guidance, assistance, lessons, and, of course, gear, you must try scuba diving there. The aquatic and marine life is still intact there, which is amazing. Moreover, it is quite affordable, with prices starting at P1500. But if you already include a few activities in your yacht charter package in Boracay (Philippines), it will cost you less.

  • Helmet diving

If you think scuba diving is fun, then even this one will be. You will only wear helmets with enough oxygen and walk several meters deep. If you are not a swimmer, this is the most feasible way to experience the glorious underwater life. It will cost you around P600.

  1. Parasailing

With your partner, sailing high up in the air will make you feel the thrill in every possible manner. For a couple, it is around P2000.

  1. Cliff diving

Imagine a free fall into the cool blue water. This is exactly what will happen when you jump off the cliff into the water! Don’t worry; it is pretty safe!

  1. Mermaid swimming

Rent a tail and live the ‘Ariel’ fantasy underwater. All it takes is P1500.

These are the activities you must try, and it is possible on different beaches. So, your next plan should be to hop from island to island!

  1. Different beaches that you must visit

  • While at the beach, it is the biggest, which runs for 4 kilometers and is extremely lively. Moreover, you can enjoy cocktails here in the shacks and also enjoy some nightlife.
