LaBoracay isn’t for the faint of heart. There are a lot of things going on: those Nestea Beach Volley games, marathons, the intense EDM sounds blaring from the DJ’s docks, and so many parties. In short, you have to be prepared to mingle with people, forget about your worries, and just have a fun time—you’d have real long nights, so just catch up on sleep in the morning!

Don’t bring too many things outside

As aforementioned, you’d have a lot of activities to do—so don’t bring all your things outside. This way, you could also protect yourself from being robbed, or from not fully enjoying your time because you’re worrying about the contents of your bags. Don’t wear expensive accessories, too.

Stay hydrated—and keep safe from the sun

Even if you’ll be spending a lot of time under the sun, make sure that you don’t suffer from heat allergies, or worse, heat stroke, by keeping yourself hydrated. Bring some mineral water, or alkaline ion drinks with you. If you have fruit-infused water, that’s good, too. And of course, don’t forget to slather some SPF 45 lotion so you could protect yourself from the sun. If the sun is too high, wear shades, caps or hats so you won’t get crazy headaches and sore eyes.

Don’t be afraid to meet new people

You’re in LaBoracay—there’s no reason for you to be shy. Who knows? That person you think is intimidating could be someone who’s looking for a friend, too! Those people who are doing the same things as you are? Maybe, you have a lot of things in common—and you could be party buddies for life! Open up and don’t stay in your own little corner each time—you’ll be surprised at the great things this could bring into your life!

Find time to rest

You don’t have to spend all your time outside, either. During downtimes, you can spend time in your chosen Boracay Beach Resort, lie in bed for a bit, have something to eat, and just chill out—then you can join your preferred activities or parties!

Clean Up

And finally, don’t forget to clean up. Don’t throw trash on the beach—and if you see some lying around, take the initiative to clean them up. It won’t hurt your soul, and will actually make you a more responsible traveler.

Partying doesn’t mean that you have to forget to take care of yourself. By being a responsible traveler, you’d surely be able to enjoy LaBoracay the best way you could!
