Being Active in Boracay

By Theplaceswevebeen @petenewbury
As I mentioned in my previous post, we didn’t just spend our whole vacation eating and relaxing on the beach. We actually took an afternoon to be active. There are many activities that you can participate in on Boracay Island that will get you away from your hotel from boat rides, to renting a sea-doo to hiking. We chose to rent a buggy car and go zip lining.One of the reasons I wanted to drive  a buggy car to Mt. Luho is because I thought it would be an off road adventure. I pictured us maneuvering through a forest trial, splashing through mud puddles and navigating around large rocks. My hopes were a little dashed when the trail was not a trail, but a road and a paved road at that. It was still fun to be behind the wheel of a nontraditional vehicle and it sure beat walking to the top of Mt. Luho.Driving our buggy car in BoracayOnce we got to the top, we decided on the spot to go zip lining. Well, with a little convincing from our guide. I’m glad we did. Zip lining is always a fun activity and when the trees are below your feet and all you can see is the beautiful water surrounding Boracay, it makes for an amazing experience.Last minute preparationsCindy enjoying the viewYou can be lazy on your beach vacation in Boracay and you can be active (even for an afternoon), and either way you are having fun. I’m glad that we had a bit of both.See the rest of the photos here.
