Situated around 350 km down south from Manila in the Visayas, Boracay is a fabulous beach destination to discover.围绕三五〇公里南下从位于米沙鄢马尼拉，长滩岛是一个神话般的海滩目的地去发现。 Sized only at 7 km long by 2 wide it's a relatively small tropical island that has lots to offer.尺寸仅为7公里的2个宽这是一个相对较小的热带岛屿，拥有许多提供长期。 Just to see it's 4km long famous white beach is well worth the trip it but the island by itself has around 30 beaches and coves for you to chose and discover.只要看到它的4公里长的白色沙滩闻名的行程是非常值得的，但它本身岛上有海滩和海湾大约30为您选择和发现。 Some are easy of access by foot while others require a bit of swimming to be reached.有些是步行交通便利，而其他需要大量的游泳位到达。 Alternatively renting out a banca will take you around all of them and beyond.或者出租一邦卡将围绕他们与超越你。 Virtually unknown 25 years ago it has fast grown into one of the Philippines most prized destination.以前它几乎不为人所知25多年的快速发展成为菲律宾最珍贵的目的地之一。 Boracay comes from the the word 'borac' which is cotton in English referring to the texture and color of it's sand.长滩来自这个词borac'这是在英国棉花指的是质地和它的沙色。

The previous nights sleep was short (about 2½ hours) and as we left our hotel in Manila at around 5 am I was still in a dreamy state wondering if on my arrival if the water would be as pristine & if the sand really had that white powder feel like it looked on the pictures I had seen.以前的睡眠很短（约2个半小时），为我们留在早上5点左右，我在一个梦幻般的状态不知道我的到来，如果如果水将作为原始和中频的沙真有那白色的还是我们在马尼拉饭店粉觉得它在我所看到照片的时候。

The quick one hour flight from Manila to Kalibo with从马尼拉的快速一小时的飞行到卡里波与 Cebu Pacific Air宿务太平洋航空​​公司 went well and we were entertained by the crew and their famous on board guessing games.顺利，我们被他们的机组人员和机上娱乐猜谜游戏闻名。 As usual the plane was about 30 minutes late but who would really notice anyways since we're on像往常一样，这架飞机约30分钟，迟到但谁真正注意到反正因为我们在 Filipino time菲律宾时间 … ...

Juts before boarding the flight still pretty much sleepy as can be伸出在登机前仍相当多的可困

From there you're in for another 90 minutes car or bus ride to the ferry terminal that's on the northern tip of the main island.从那里你在90分钟再开车或乘坐巴士到渡轮码头上的主岛北端的。 It's actually not that bad since it gave me my first glimpse of Filipino provincial life which is very different from the one of the Capital.它实际上并不坏，因为它给了我生活的菲律宾省级这是非常从一个不同的资本第一次看到。 You can if you are in a hurry fly directly from Manila to Caticlan flight with你可以的，如果你是在急于直飞航班从马尼拉到Caticlan与 Asian Spirit亚洲精神 or或 SeAIR SeAIR and skip the 90 minutes transfer on smaller 20-30 seated aircrafts.并跳过90分钟20-30转坐小飞机上。 The Caticlan runway is as short as it gets and only these kids of aircrafts would be able to land and depart from.该卡地克兰跑道短，因为它得到，只有这些孩子们的飞机将能够离开土地和。

Now comes the final part of our journey the 20 minutes Banca ride to Boracay which was quite a fun experience to board one of those vessels onto the sea:现在到了我们的旅程的最后部分，车程20分钟邦卡长滩这是相当有趣的经验，董事会到海上的船只之一：
