Our last day in Bora started off, again, with our late breakfast. After that we had our tshirt souvenir hunting. Almost all of the stores are offering a buy 1 take 1 shirt for 180php. You just have to have lots of patience in looking for the perfect design. I also got to buy a dry bag for 600php (huli na nakabili haha).

We bought hot fudge sundae from mcdo and note to everyone, mcdo in Bora is more expensive. Their 25php value meal is 35php there. Only in Bora haha.

At around 11am, we sadly departed the wondeful world of Bora. Our flight was at 3:45pm in Kalibo so there was enough time for travel. We got a tricycle going to the port which costs 20php each, again don’t forget to tell the driver its individual to save on fare. At the port, you have to again pay a 100php for the terminal fee. We got a smaller boat compared before plus van transfer to airport which costs 200php. This time around, our trip to the airport was fast or maybe it’s because we were just asleep the whole way.

Upon arriving at the airport, we had our lunch in the restaurants in front of the aiport which was still a bit expensive. We had rice and lechon kawali for 305php. The airport fee was 40php per person. Their airport is a bit small considering its an international airport and it’s a bit of a challenge to find seats although they do have available seats on the 2nd floor. Luckily we scored some seats near this coffee booth. We just ordered the Peppermint Dark Mocha Frappe for 90php which was not yummy at all haha. We also bought some barquillos for pasalubong at 44php each. Flavors are mango, chocolate, ube. Again, kudos to Air Asia for a “right on time” flight. The shuttle was also available outside of the airport going to Dau terminal which was at 50php each. Then from there, we boarded a Victory Liner bus going to Pasay at 150php. And that concludes our most awaited Boracay trip and first ever blog write up! =)

And finally, after so many years, we have an answer to our question of the Bohol beach vs Bora beach. The winner (in our opinion) would have to be Bora. We were just a bit hesitant at first due to some parts which are lumot-infested but if they remove that, you could say that without a doubt, Bora beach is better than Bohol beach. But if you do want a quiet, secluded experience, then Bohol is the place for you, which also boasts a great beach =)

Summary of our Boracay Trip
No doubt that Boracay is way much better than Bohol's and other beaches in the Philippines. It won't be listed on the best beaches in the world for nothing. :)
