Boracay's Bom-Bom Bar
If this is your first time to visit Boracay Island here in the Philippines, you would be curious to know which places are best to go and hang out with the locals. It’s an endless list; however there are some that really stands out and locals customarily go. During the summer time here in the Philippines, there will be a lot of bigger events (i.e. Big Fish and Marlboro Party) that will be held in Boracay Island and will be mentioned here in our blog area once official announcements are given. More chill-out spots to choose from will be featured in the following weeks. There is nothing more exciting in your vacation than meet people who know Boracay Island the way locals do. You may not just hear pirate stories and what local rum or beer that’s best to try, but might also hear a little about the Boracay Island politics on the side; like topics about disallowing famous fast food chains to open up in this little beautiful paradise.
