Boracay Island Philippines: A Simple Business and Profit Brought by Tourism

Last January, I went to Kalibo Aklan (Philippines) to audit one of our clients – a credit cooperative. Aklan is popular for Boracay Island where you can find purely white beaches. If you are going to Boracay from outside the Philippines, you can fly to Manila (the country’s capital city), and then ride another plane to Caticlan for an hour. Another way is to fly directly to Kalibo International Airpot where you can ride a van or a bus for an hour to Caticlan. When you arrive in Caticlan you will need to ride a boat for about 15 minutes to reach the Island of Boracay.

It was my first time to visit the Island and it was really a great experience to see the white sand that attracts many tourists around the world. When I first arrive at Dmall (a mall near the beach) it was filled with different races of people – Chinese, Germans, Japanese, Americans, British, Koreans, Italians, and of course Filipinos. The place, although a small island, is already urbanized and commercialized. Five stars hotels like Boracay Regency hotel and Discovery Shores entice the visitors to stay there. At night, you can hang-up on different bars line up beside the sea, offering fine wines and tasty foods. Read more

3. Chocolates, cakes and other sweet foods manufacturers. Love is sweet. To represent and experience this sweetness, indulging our sense of taste is the answer. You may tell your girl that “chocolates are sweet but you are sweeter than these chocolates”. To do these you will bring real chocolates.

4. Restaurants. What is the first thing that comes in our minds when we hear the word dating? A very romantic date needs to have a very romantic dinner. Read more
