This would be a great opportunity for amazing pictures!
Paraw Sailing
Sail like a local with a paraw, which is an outrigger boat with two sails. Experience life in the sea in a different way as you sail along the many islands around Boracay.
Sea-walking
If parasailing is flying high, sea-walking brings you down under to meet the rich marine life of the island. This activity is great for swimmers and non-swimmers. There are hand signals to learn and dos and donts to follow, but the experience of swimming close to colourful fishes and spectacular marine creatures is worth!
Cliff Jumping
