Boracay, Philippines

A destination so popular, the government had to start limiting the number of people that can visit each year, Boracay is a favourite for a reason. The White Beach is this small island's most famous feature, with sand so pale it almost looks like sugar. The water is usually clear, warm and inviting-perfect for a swim. Up away from the shore, you can find restaurants that'll satisfy any craving and not-to-be-missed night life. After relaxing on the beach, take a stroll through open air markets or hike through the island's greenery.
