I do kinda agree with them though, Boracay isn’t really that great, only good thing is there’s lots of hotels for ok prices, but El Nido and Palawan in general is much better.

Why is the the Why you shouldn't??? Boracay may have irs up and Down but if you dont have the budget of course you miss many of its amazing amenities and Offers. I have a friend who went to place didn't went out of the hotel and said bad things about a place. Saying you don't have no Budget for the fun things Boracay has to offer and went there and call it overrated is just plain unfair and stupid. But its still a great Island 🏝️ and part of the Philippines Paradise 🇵🇭 and we too are travel a lot but my family don't bad mouth a place from Europe to Asia and call it overrated because we lack the fund's to utilize it's offers and the people are friendly more than I can say to foreigners in their country

hey! Make sure you watch the whole video, I didn't bad mouth it :) Boracay is beautiful, I just prefer other islands in the Philippines and yes it is more expensive then other Filipino islands but that doesn't make it bad just good for other tourists to be aware in case it's not in their budget! All the best :)

Too many scammers. There are honest people, but the scammers are just too many. If you are a tourist, local or foreigner, if they get an idea that you don't know anything of the island, they will turn into a scammer. I pity the honest people/sellers/drivers who work hard there but they are just too few. compared to the scammers which is their actual way of living there - to scam tourists.

Boracay definitely lives up to the hype. Been there earlier this year and fell in love with it ever since. Planning to spend Christmas there this year again with the family. However I’m not surprised with foreigners being charged almost double or even triple the price for almost everything here. Sadly it’s like that in most tourist attractions in the Philippines. Locals just assume you “wouldn’t mind” spending extra just because you came from abroad. Though I’m gonna be a d*ck and say that it’s the west’s tipping culture which also contributed to this mindset.

My wife and I just got back from a 3-day trip, and it honestly wasn’t the greatest. The view and the beach itself are absolutely spectacular, there’s no doubt about that. But holy shit, there was non-stop bugging by the kuyas trying to sell their parasailing/activity packages, and it really left a sour taste in our mouths. Every second you’re walking down the strip “MA’AM SIR, MA’AM SIR PLEASE PARASAILING, ISLAND HOPING!” You try to sit on the beach and enjoy the day with a coconut drink, 10 different people will come over and bother you about the same parasailing and island hoping packages, along with the sunglasses guy, the Groot statue guy and the kid trying to sell you necklaces for a long relationship. You go out to the ocean for a dip, then there’s a guy paddling over to you trying to get you to rent a paddle board for an hour. You get out to try and find lunch/dinner, there’s a hundred different people screaming “HAPPY HOUR MA’AM SIR, BUY ONE GET ONE!!!”, but when you get to the restaurant that sounds enticing the service is usually pretty abysmal. Boracay is nothing like the rest of the Philippines. We took another trip to Oslob, did the whale shark activity and many other things and had an absolute blast. I don’t think we’ll be back to Boracay.

One of the most stunning islands I have visited is Kuroshima. The scuba diving is fabulous. There are boats that take you over to another unspoilt island called Panari, where the coral is absolutely amazing. We were snorkelling with sea snakes. Unforgettable.

Boracay establishments cater to 1 to 5 & even 6 star levels of vacationers. Proper research must be done before deciding to go. Carabao Island, 30 minutes by boat from Boracay, offers lots of privacy. Backpackers visit Palawan, Romblon, North/South Gigantes & many lesser known of 7,100 islands also because there are different levels of experiences to be had.

It's a long departure from the reasons I follow your channel. A suggestion... just put a link below the stream, or make an entire video about your equipment and software, etc. That way, those who are interested in such things can see it, and those of us who are not at all interested, can watch to the end of the video story without the annoying interruption.

Nothing beats boracay. Amazing beaches around the island. Great nightlife scene, amazing restaurants, bars and hotels just all withing walking distances. These guys visited during the rainy season when the wind blows into white beach so the ocean is rougher which of course brings in more stuff from the sea. For people complaining about high prices, let me tell you that it is basically a nightmare to get quality products shipped in to the island and have constant supply of ingredients. I know that everybody has different opinions but the island and its people suffered alot during the last 5 years and videos where the caption is ready negative makes me angry. Remember that behind a tourist spot there are people working hard to bring food to their family table. If there are no tourists then countless people have nothing to earn. So yea. I prefer a super busy Boracay over a quite and dead island to please some backpacking vloggers.

There are islands around Panay Island that are just as good as Boracay but less crowded. I would suggest checking them out especially those near Iloilo.

@@ericroca8879 Gigantes would no doubt be touristic. It is a very beautiful island. But we had really bad experience with locals trying to scam us and we were traveling with someone who can speak their language.

Indeed, it is overcrowded like the City of Manila. If you are looking for a perfect "day & night" getaway, El Nido, Coron, & Siargao.
