Cagban Beach: More commonly known as the beach port of the island, Cagban Beach Boracay has its own blend of crystal waters and soft, powdery and white sand that the island is famous for. And though most tourists go to see the more popular beaches of Boracay in other areas, Cagban Beach has also been improved and is considered a tourist attraction in itself with its great beach, many resorts and easy accessibility by boat or land. Visitors to the island will never be disappointed if they stay and enjoy their vacation on Cagban Beach Boracay.

Cagban Beach is one of the most urbanized parts of Boracay Island on Aklan, Philippines. It is known as the unofficial welcome and greeting area of the whole island.

Technically the private beach of Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort and Spa, this attractive 100-meter-long sheltered stretch of fine white sand to the west of Yapak Beach is framed by two high rocky outcrops and features comfortable sunbeds with large umbrellas and attentive waiters.

Banyugan is accessible to non-guests, although it’s advisable to make a reservation for one of the Shangri-La’s bars or restaurants beforehand.

Banyugan Beach is also a great snorkeling spot with large shoals of fish just offshore. Read More: http://www.cnn.com/2014/12/02/travel/boracay-best-beaches/index.html

Among the many beaches of Boracay Island, perhaps the least known or popular is Tulubhan Beach on the southern side. This is maybe its greatest advantage, it is a secret that not many know about, being small and usually not full of the crowds one usually sees at the more popular beaches, it gives visitors a chance to really commune with nature and enjoy the beach to its fullest without having to deal with so many other people who want the same thing. For that exclusive-deserted-island feel on Boracay, try Tulubhan Beach. Read More: http://boracaylive.com/tulubhan-beach/
