Boracay-philipines. Wetsuit and Accomodation?

Postby Pin Head » Sun Mar 18, 2012 11:02 pm

Do I need a wetsuit or am I thinking northern hemisphere too much?

There for a week - accomodation options, beach hut, simple room with fan. Any tips.

Finally best currency to take? US Dollar?

Thanks

Shortie wetsuit at the most ( too hot for a full wetsuit ). There are a ton of hotels, hostels, rooms for rent on the island in every price range. I got my room on the internet , but i noticed you could get awesome deals in the malls in Manila. They have little kiosk in the malls with trips to other places as low as 100 USD for hotel & airfare ( around 3D / 2N). You can change USD on the island , but the people only take Pesos so have it handy all the time....have fun, awesome island

Most people ride in shorts, including me.
But do bring a long sleeve lycra fornthe cloudy afternoons or mornings, they can be chillier.

Rooms, just get here and find one...tons available at this time...only Easter will be really full.

Maybe do the package deal like mentioned above, somyounhave 2-3 nights secured and pick up from the airport is organized!

Do you fly to Caticlan of Kalibo?

CU !
