3.There are few places in the world with people as friendly and scenery as beautiful as the Philippines.Of the 7,107islands that make up the archipelago nation(群岛国家),Boracay is one that has some of the best beaches the country-or even Asia-has to offer.
Boracay is a great choice for a beach holiday,especially if you're trying to escape the cold claws of winter.A lot is packed on the island,which is not much bigger than 10square kilometers.It has many charms and attractions for the most active traveler,as well as the biggest beach bum(冲浪爱好者).
It also caters to a variety of budgets.With everything from low-key guesthouses to five-star resorts,local fare to gourmet meals(餐要大餐),travelers will be able to spend as-much or as little as they want.And like many destinations in Asia,bargaining will help you get better prices on accommodation,leisure activities,shopping and dining.
The majority of accommodations can be found along the western side of the island,along White Sand Beach and Bulabog Beach.The southern part of the beach,called Station Three,caters more to backpacker crowds,and prices tend to increase the farther you go up the beach.Station Two,5to 10 minutes on foot from Station Three,is the center of the island's pulsing nightlife.Another 10 minutes up from Station Two is Station One,where you'll find the resort hotels and a more relaxed,comforting atmosphere.
The island's lookout point is arguably the best place for panoramic(全景的)views of Boracay and its neighboring islands.Just a few moments of breathtaking scenery and fresh sea air will rejuvenate(使精神焕发)you and make you feel you never want to leave.
There are organized trips to nearby islands,one of the most popular being Ariel's Point.The Boracay Beach Club resort,which owns the island,plans outings to Ariel's for a minimum of 14 people each trip.Visitors can have a day of cliff-jumping,snorkeling and barbecues.
An alternative-and a sure way to see and do what you want-is to hire a boat.Ride around
Boracay,stop at a restaurant frequented by locals,visit the neighboring islands,find a good snorkeling spot or fthd a beach where you can appreciate Boracay's unspoiled beauty.Countless boat operators offer their services along the shore.Rental is typically 500pesos($12)an hour.
Another must-do is a sailboat ride at sunset.White Sand and Bulabog Beaches are lined with sailboats,and there's nothing quite like watching the sun descend against the backdrop of a blue sea and sky.There's very little that will top this bonding moment with nature.
To round up the day,head out for a tasty meal.Because of Boracay's countless international visitors,almost every major food type is available.There's New York-style pizzas,burgers galore,Mexican treats,Thai favorites,as well as Japanese udon noodles.
There's plenty more to love and appreciate about Boracay.With its small,cozy atmosphere and welcoming people,it's one destination not to pass up for that romantic getaway,family trip or holiday with friends.

A.northward B.southward C.eastward D.westward
