Willy's Rock
The iconic Willy’s Rock in Boracay actually has a grotto of the Mother Mary at the front part of this rock formation and is just a few steps away from the powdery soft beach. You can actually climb up to it as stairs have been made to access the grotto. Yes, you will get wet as you have to wade throughout the clear water, and white sand. Do not worry, the water is not deep. It is also a popular landmark of beautiful Boracay, so do take pictures and of course swim! Enjoy the sea, the sand, the sun!

Boracay's Important Landmark🇵🇭
#boracaytrip
This is a very popular spot for tourists and locals especially those who are Catholics. It has got a statue of Virgin Mary on top of the rocks where people offer their prayers. Since this is an iconic landmark in Boracay, everyone wants to take photos with it as a background so sometimes it can get crowded.
This is located near station 1 of the white beach so if your accommodation is at station 3 then this is around three or four kilometers walk. Really depends on where you are wether station 1 2 and 3. Hopping onto a motorcycle is convenient if you are not fond of walking.
So, if you are ever in Boracay, Willy's Rock Grotto is hard to miss.

Just take one day off for a spontaneous trip to Boracay Island
Just one day off is enough to enjoy Boracay Island. If you're longing for this popular island destination, hurry up and make arrangements!
📍Transportation (Airport to City)
From Boracay Airport to the hotel, you need to take a bus, then a crab boat, followed by a Tutu, with a one-way trip taking about 3-4 hours. No need to book in advance, just go to the Southwest counter after leaving the airport to buy a combined bus and boat ticket.
🚠City Transportation
Staying in the D Mall area, you can walk to commercial streets, Willy's Rock, and Friday Beach among other attractions. For beaches a bit further away, you can take a Tutu car.
🩵Day 1: Dmall-Willy's Rock-Friday Beach-Sunset Sailing
No kidding, I could spend a whole day at D-Mall. There are quite a few popular attractions nearby, such as Willy's Rock. It's better to go early, as it gets crowded in the afternoon.
At sunset, you can experience sunset sailing. Then check in at the popular restaurants along the street, and when night falls, go bar hopping.
🩵Day 2: Magic Island & Crystal Cove Island Hopping
Island hopping in Boracay isn't just about snorkeling and water activities, you can also try cliff diving. If you're scared, start with the three-meter diving board. The water below is shallow, and life jackets are provided, so there's no need to worry about drowning.
On Crystal Cove Island, you can enjoy the fun of sea fishing, which is challenging but interesting.
🩵Day 3: Tour of Popular Beaches
Besides the area around D-Mall, there are many popular beaches on Boracay Island.
For example, Puka Beach where Fish Leong held her wedding, and Bulabog Beach known for kite surfing.
Additionally, you can climb to the top of Mount Luho for a 360-degree unobstructed view of the entire beauty of Boracay Island.

Besides water activities in Boracay, you can't miss the delicious food. The following delicacies are worth a try:
👉Four Seasons Pizza and Pasta
👉Grilled Chicken Set
👉Coconut Shaved Ice

This reef of the Virgin, standing in the middle of the sea, is one of the landmarks of Boracay. This is a beautiful volcanic rock. Because the local residents enshrine a Madonna on it, it is also known as the "Mr.
The reef is surrounded by the beautiful sea and stands quietly under the blue sky and white clouds. When the sea is low tide, you can also go to the reef and climb the reef to look at the beautiful sea.
The sea attracts me with his unique charm, calling me to make my new body fly to him and worship him. Walking into the magical reef of the Virgin, it is awe-inspiring to experience the beauty of nature.
