How to Reach Boracay?

There is no airport on the island of Boracay, which means visitors will have to fly to the mainland and catch a ferry to the island. There are daily flights from Manila (the capital of the Philippines) to Caticlan or Kalibo airports, which are the nearest to Boracay.

Caticlan is more favored since it is only 3 minutes away from the Caticlan Jetty Port, which brings tourists to the island. Kalibo is about 45 minutes from the port but is more favored for those traveling on a budget since flights to this airport are usually offered at lower prices.

When you arrive at Caticlan or Kalibo airport, you can hire a van, motorcycle, or car to take you to the Caticlan Jetty Port. From there, you will board an outrigger boat (banca), which will take you to Boracay in 10-20 minutes.

For those staying at resorts such as Shangrila or Crimson, these resorts have private speedboats that take their guests to and from the Caticlan Jetty Port.
