How to get to Puka Beach in Boracay Island

Going to Puka Beach from Boracay or Caticlan Port:

This is my DIY trip (do it yourself trip) From Caticlan Port ride a ferry boat bound to Cagban Jetty Port in Boracay then take a tricyle ride going to the white beach. Then ask the driver to drop you off to D'Mall. Once you get to D'Mall, tricycles are available to take you to Puka Beach located at Barangay Yapak, Malay Aklan, which is the northern tip of Boracay Island.. Regular fare for each person is P20. If you’re with a group and you would want to rent one, charter rate per tricycle (not per person) is P100 for the local tourists, P150 for foreigners. Just tell the driver to drop you off to the famous white beach of Puka Beach. 

I do highly recommend this place. I have been here last July 2012 and will be back soon.

Restaurants and Bars at Puka Beach, Boracay Island

There are several bars and restaurants in Puka Beach, Barangay Yapak, Malay Aklan. One of the famous restaurant is Seashore Grill and Restaurant located infront of the white beach resort.  They serve great foods and fresh seafoods as well.  They are kind and  i felt so safe when i was there.  I should say it's the best part of the whole boracay island trip. It's very secluded and quiet. There is no doubt that this is a must see when you are in Boracay and do not miss to have something to eat at Seashore Grill and Restaurant  , a little nipa hut eatery,serving freshly prepared seafood. Food is excellent and staff are very nice.

I will surely go back this place soon! Happy Travels!

Puka Beach or Puka Shell Beach - A Hidden Gem of Boracay Island

What a paradise! Welcome to Puka Beach! This places is a like a hidden paradise because it is covered with small islands and rock formation. I took a short 20 minutes tricycle ride to one of the most beautiful and hidden beaches in Boracay. Make sure to go for a long walk along the shore to explore some awesome rock caves and find seashells. This beach area is the second largest white beach of Boracay.  Other travelers and tourist like to enjoy this eco-paradise and a long white beach area. Perhaps the most famous activity in Puka Beach is island hopping, snorkeling and  scuba diving. 

Jump Off to Puka Beach in Boracay Malay Aklan

Puka Beach or locally known as Puka Shell Beach is awesome. This part of the beach is in the northern side of Boracay Island. If you want a different experience in the Island go to Puka Beach located at Barangay Yapak, Boracay Island, Malay Aklan. About 15-20 minutes away from the white beach of Boracay and has quite/less tourist. Along the 800-meter stretch of white sand. Just hanging out sa tindahan ni ate sa harap ng main gate! hehehe! or check out their local puka shells accessories and souvenirs inside the area.  Beads and other ornaments made from shells, pearls, and other gems are sold there. A lot of restaurant can be find at Puka Beach. It's an image of what most people expect to come here! I never visited this area since I was travelling boracay so many times. For your information the resort has no entrance fee. I probably recommend this area because I think this was a hidden gem of Boracay Island.
