About Borawan Island

Borawan Island is a hidden gem in Padre Burgos, Quezon. The name comes from “Boracay” and “Palawan” — suggesting that it has the powdery white sand of Boracay and the rock formations of Palawan. It’s a great weekend escape for nature lovers and budget travelers. It is a small islet with a stretch of fine white sand shoreline, surrounded by crystal clear waters, and a cool and relaxing ambience. A few years ago, this island became phenomenal in the province because of its beauty.

The Province of Quezon is one of my favorite provinces in the Philippines because of its gorgeous beaches, which can be considered as one of the top tourist attractions and destinations in the region. Aside from that, they also have the colorful Pahiyas Festival and sumptuous pancit hab-hab. A few of the gems can also be found on higher altitudes of Mt. Banahaw – the Holy Mountain, and Mt. Cristobal – the Devil's Mountain. Now, for the third time, I am visiting three of the fine-looking islets of Padre Burgos, Quezon.
