Little Boracay (Davao Occidental)
About
Powder-white sand, leaning coconut palms and water in every shade of turquoise: this is how Little Boracay earned its name! The beach curves under a green hillside in the far south of Davao, with a row of blue-roofed cottages right on the sand. It's quiet, local and seriously photogenic from the air. Pack lunch, swim, repeat!
Dry until sunset (5:21 PM). Good time to go!
