Station 1 is best for luxury seekers wanting wide beaches, upscale resorts, and a quieter atmosphere (hotels from $80+/night). Station 2 is ideal for those wanting convenience - D'Mall, restaurants, nightlife, and activities are all nearby. Station 3 is best for budget travelers with accommodations from $20-40/night while still enjoying the same beautiful beach.

Boracay implemented strict beach rules after its 2018 rehabilitation: No sunbeds or beach furniture on the sand, no smoking anywhere on the beach, no eating or drinking on the beach (use designated areas), no sandcastles near the water, no loud music, and no littering. These rules have helped maintain the beach's pristine condition. Violators can face fines.
