Water/Land Activities in Boracay

Plenty of activities for you to enjoy, after all is an island, so have fun in Boracay! Along the beach, you will find lots of touts/middleman trying to sell you the activities. They give you a package price if you can commit at least 3 types of activities. We met middleman Jerson and Rey. Or if you are not budget conscious, just go with company such as Southwest or My Boracay Guide or just go to White beach or Bulabog beach (depends on season) look for Diamond Company.

Parasailing
Kiting activity where you will be towed behind a boat.  Minimum 2 person or maximum 3 person.  This was so fun to be in the air overseeing the sea, however, you totally do not have any control over the parachute.
