📸Attraction Name: Puka Beach 📍Location : Boracay 🚏Best way to get there : via bpat tour or tuktuk Boracay is one of those places where you always crave to visit every now and then. From the stunning beaches, amazing sunsets, and delicious seafood, these are enough to make you come back. But if you want to visit less crowded beach, consider Puka Beach. This is reachable via boat tour or in our case, since we wanted to stay the whole day, we decided to rent a tuktuk. There were less people mostly in the afternoon since boat tours arrived in the morning and left after a an hour or so. #visitboracay #philippines

I took the island-hopping tour to Puka Beach. This small island was relatively quieter compared to the popular Stations 1, 2, 3 which were always full of tourists and local merchandise. It was named as Puke because of the Puka seashells found on the white shores; this explains why the sand here is rougher than the powdery white sand on the White Beach. I was amazed how clear the water was. I grabbed some shells for a photo and put them back after that (Note: Please do not take home any of the marine creatures) Location: Boracay, Philippines Highlights: Puka seashells, crystal clear water Ambiance/Facilities: 8/10 Rating: 4/5

The beautiful Puka Shell Beach! From White Beach, you have to ride a tricycle for about 20 minutes (round trip 500 pesos) It has a different charm from White Beach, and it is exotic and a perfect place for swimming The sea is so clear that you feel good just looking at it If you are planning a trip to Boracay, Make sure to visit 😍 #SummerIsSummer #Boracay #BoracayTravel #BoracayHotPlace #PukaShellBeach #WhiteBeach #Beach

Puka Beach is an excellent choice to chill and relax on a beautiful island close to Boracay. The island is not too big so you can walk pretty much the entire island easily. We enjoyed the warm water and the sound of the waves. Sunscreen is a must however I recommend to avoid noon time as the heat could be unbearable. Early morning or afternoon is a pleasant time. Do not miss out the sunset with your favourite drink. Wherever you go, you will see silky white sands and crystal clear waters. To get to this island you need to pay for a boat trip which is not expensive. They sell fresh coconut which you should also try. #createwithtrip #holidays #exploring #createwithtrip

#christmasgiveaway Boracay has always been amazing and being out in the city after 2 years feels so refreshing. Nothing beats the sound of the ocean waves and salty air. Drinking cocktails with your friends and having fun laying in the beach. We all miss getting the sun and the fresh air.

Puka Shell Beach is a site where you may still get a taste of Boracay's natural beauty. It may have signs of modernity, yet there are still portions of it that have managed to retain its true tranquility. Puka Beach is 800 meters long and is bordered on one side by a large cliff with a forest. Flying foxes (extremely large bats) can be seen flying across the top of the cliff at dusk. Because of the microscopic particles of coral mixed in with the sand, it is rougher than that of White Beach. In the past, the beach was also lined with puka shells, which is how it received its name. It's also worth noting that the water depth rapidly increases. If you're not sure about your swimming skills, I recommend remaining close to the beach, a travel tip advice. #naturalwonders#seasidephotoguide#bestislandtraveltowns#summervacation#beachvacation#urbanexplorer

Getaway from the crowded white beach in Boracay? Go see and chill at Puka beach! A 10 to 15 minute tricycle away, you may enjoy this beach. A personal favorite of mine. Though it can be crowded too at times but in the afternoon, you can almost have it to yourself and your friends. #happynewyear #wandermye #boracayisland #boracay #pukabeach #philippinebeach #happynewyear

There is a tranquil seaside atmosphere here. After the ebb tide, you can also find many beautiful small shells on the beach. This is the wedding venue of the love song Tian Liang Liang Jingru. It is also the location of her wedding dress. There are very few tourists here. The private and quiet environment may be one of the reasons for the big star in this treasure place. Here you can fully relax your body and mind, let the sea breeze accompany you to sleep, the whole beach is completely in your space, no one will disturb your dreams. This is the Puka Beach in the northernmost part of Boracay. It is the second largest beach in Boracay. For the Chinese tourists, Puka Beach knows more about it. Liang Jingru once held a wedding here, but Puka Beach It is still famous for its shiny Puka shells. If you want to come to Boracay to find a quiet beach, then this is your best choice.

Sitting and chatting on the shores of Puka Beach, with the wind blowing, is a very comfortable experience. My active friends, who jumped into the sea, made a good picture with the red swim ring. I was just tanning myself on the beach, enjoying the view. There were many tourists from the west who visited Boracay for the beach and the sun. They stay in the sun all day and get a tan. The Orientals, on the other hand, are unwilling to be exposed to the sun. They wear hats and carry umbrellas since their skin gets tanned very easily. I chose to wear long sleeved, quick-drying clothes, but I still can’t escape the fate of tanning.

Xu is still in the heart of the feeling of chasing stars, in the afternoon hit a tutu car, went to Liang Jingru to hold the wedding of Puka Beach and WestCove West Bay Hotel. Puka Beach is located on the northern coast, far from the white sand beach, and has a taxi of around 200 pesos. However, there are few beach people, and the shell coral stone that is washed by the waves to the shore is also very beautiful. It is a rare place to play. The beauty of the West Bay Hotel has been spread on the Internet very early, and West Cove on this mountainside has to buy tickets first, and can't find the ticket office to ask the hotel staff. Tickets are 500P, and each will be given a bracelet and a list that can be handed over to the staff at the viewing table to deduct the meal. Enjoy the sunset here and have a romantic feeling unlike the beach.

An amazing trip to the Philippines . What a beautiful country and beautiful people , I would come back here for sure. Boracay is one of the most peaceful relaxed places I have been .

Long Beach Island, nestled in the southwest of the Philippines, is a captivating resort destination. With its beautiful beaches, crystal-clear waters, and warm climate, it's the perfect place to unwind and soak up the sun. You can bask in the sun, play in the sand, swim, and surf along the shore, indulging in the joys of the seaside. Beyond the beaches, Long Beach Island offers a variety of activities to try. **Visa Information**: Starting from April, obtaining a Philippine individual visa has become more complicated. For this trip, I chose a group visa, which is straightforward—just a passport is needed, making independent travel hassle-free. **Travel Guide**: Direct flights from Hangzhou to Kalibo are available, making it more convenient than flying to Manila. Upon arrival, follow your guide to take local transportation to the island. **Must-Visit Spots on Long Beach Island**: 1. Visit Willy's Rock, accessible during low tide. 2. Watch the sunset with beach sailboats. 3. 4. Go to Puka Shell Beach to see the jellyfish sea; the sand isn't as fine, but the water is incredibly blue. 5. Watch the sunrise at Bulabog Beach. 6. Go snorkeling on a crab boat. 7. Enjoy a hot stone spa, a unique offering on Long Beach Island that can relax your travel fatigue. 8. For the brave, try wakeboarding or paragliding. Of course, you can't miss the local cuisine when visiting Long Beach Island. There are many local specialties, such as grilled fish, grilled shrimp, and coconut rice, all with delicious flavors that leave a lasting impression. **Food Notes**: There are various local cuisines available on the island. If you find the Philippine cuisine a bit too much after a few days, you can try the crabs at red crab pasta house, or opt for Japanese or Korean barbecue. Enjoy a cup of coffee and dessert every day; the mango ice cream at halomango and the desserts at coco mama are fantastic. A banana milkshake at any beachside café is a must-try. **Tips**: Apply sunscreen, as it's very sunny. Choose indoor activities during the day and go to the beach early in the morning or late in the evening. Carry some cash, as the island relies heavily on cash transactions. During your stay on Long Beach Island, you can also schedule some relaxing massages and spa treatments to soothe your body and enhance your relaxation and enjoyment. Long Beach Island is a charming resort destination where you can find activities and fun suitable for families, friends, or couples. Are you ready? Let's embark on a journey to Long Beach Island and experience the charm of Philippine sunshine and beaches! Remember to make advance preparations to make your trip perfect!

I visited Puka Beach on Boracay Island in the Philippines, one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. The beach is characterized by its soft white sand and clear turquoise waters, making it an ideal place for relaxation and swimming. During my visit, I enjoyed walking along the beach and taking pictures of the stunning scenery. I also enjoyed collecting unique seashells that are known to be scattered along the beach. I took a rest under the shade of palm trees, enjoying the tranquility and serenity away from the hustle and bustle of Boracay's main beaches. The atmosphere was perfect for relaxation and meditation, and the visit added a magical and unique experience to my trip.

Puka Beach is a quiet retreat with a dense tropical forest bordering its white sand and pristine water. The stretch of sand runs for about 2,620 feet (800 meters), making it one of the longest on the island. Examine the tiny Puka shells, which give the beach its name.

📍Puka Shell Beach (Yapak, Malay, Aklan Province 5608 Philippines) - Come to Boracay Puka Beach where you can feel the beautiful white sand, picturesque sky, and emerald sea! 💙 - I visited both White Beach and Puka Beach! White Beach has a lot of people, and because it is connected to the city, it feels like a crowded beach! - So I decided on Puka Beach! Puka Beach is quieter than White Beach, and the sea water is really beautiful, so it was the perfect beach for healing! - There were waves on the day I went, so I was able to enjoy swimming in the sea along with the natural wave pool :) We didn't go sailing or hopping tour at Puka Beach, but there were people who did! I think it would be good for those who want to try it! - Go on a healing trip to Boracay's Puka Beach, just like in the picture💙🌊 #Tourist Attraction Review #Philippines Travel #Boracay Travel #Boracay Hot Place #Puka Beach #Puka Shell Beach #Beach Recommendation #Southeast Asia Travel #Philippines Travel Destination #Southeast Asia Travel Destination
