Getting There

The most recommended way is by airplane to Kalibo or Caticlan. The flight time to both locations is one hour. If you go via Kalibo, you will be able to fly on a B737 150 seater Jet aircraft of PAL, Cebu Pacific or Air Philippines. If you go via Caticlan, you will fly on Asian Spirit (50 seater) or SeAirs (19 seater) which offers 8 flights each a day to Caticlan.

The benefit of traveling on the smaller planes to Caticlan is the price and land transfer is only 10 Mins as oppose to Kalibo's 2 hours. Take a flight to Manila. You may have to spend a night in Manila on your outward journey because onward flights to Boracay are limited. Fly Philippine Airlines from Manila (Domestic Airport) to Kalibo Airport.

(The flight takes 30 minutes and costs about 3,000 Philippine peso return). From Kalibo Airport takes the air-conditioned bus to Caticlan and the boat from Caticlan harbor to Boracay (the bus trip takes 90 minutes and the boat 30 minutes. Various charter companies fly direct from Manila to Caticlan Airport. As there is no jetty on Boracay, you have to wade ashore from the boat, so wear something suitable!

From Caticlan Jetty Port you take a boat across to Boracay arriving at Cagban Port. Take a tricycle ride costing something php 20.00 per person or php 100.00 if you hire to Crafts Supermarket on the main road. From Crafts walk past the main entrance towards the mall and cash machine take the first turn left down the walkway you will see a Fat Jimmy’s sign ahead of you. Isla Gecko is 100 meters walk from there.
