BY AIR
Caticlan (MPH)
The most direct way to get to Boracay is to fly to Caticlan, Panay Island (either from Manila or Cebu City).
*Be aware that airlines will place a 7kg weight limit on carry-on baggage and may have a 10kg limit on checked baggage on flights to and from Caticlan.
From the Caticlan airport, take a tricycle to the Caticlan jetty port. Then it is just a short 10-minute boat ride to Boracay.
Kalibo (KLO)
An alternative is to fly to Kalibo Airport, which is 2 hours away by bus or van from Caticlan, but accepts flights from more locations around the Philippines as well as international flights from some southeast Asian countries.
From Kalibo Airport, travel by road (about two hours). There are many vans outside the airport that go directly from the airport to the Jetty Port in Caticlan (approx P300 ($6)/passenger).
Buses are available as well at the airport. You can take your chance with what is at the terminal (P200 ($4.50)) or book ahead via travel agencies such as Sourthwest Tours or Island Star Express, which can organize the entire journey to Boracay (P300-P450 ($6-10), including boat transfer).
BY SEA
Another option from Manila is to take a ferry boat. From Manila, travel by road (about two hours) to Batangas Port. Buses going to Batangas leave roughly every 30 minutes to one hour from Cubao or Buendia Terminals. Once on the ferry the journey will take about 10 hours and will arrive in Caticlan Jetty Port.
2GO is the preferred ferry company for travel. Private and shared staterooms are available, as well as dormitory style (with or without aircon). The cost for dormitory w/ aircon (Tourist Class) is P1000 ($22).
ON BORACAY
From Caticlan Jetty Port, there are ferries to take you to Boracay. It’s a quick trip - only about 10 minutes across.
Once on Boracay, tricycles at the port will take you to the gym. Tell the tricycle driver you are going to Diniwid. The cost will be around P300 for a private tricycle (meaning not shared). Once on Diniwid Road we are located roughly 250 meters from turnoff from Main Road. Look for our sign located at ground level on the right hand side of the road. From there walk a roughly 50 meter path and you will have arrived at Legacy Gym.
Transportation back to your airport can also be arranged ahead of time through Southwest Tours. Door-to-door service is available with pickup happening in front of the gym and drop-off to your desired airport. The cost for travel to Kalibo Airport is P500 ($12), including boat, van, environmental and transfer fees.
