Her Travelling Years: November 2014

here's me on the highest plank at 15m!

Cliff diving. Needless to say, that is the no. 1 thing on people's mind when they are headed there. Choose from 3m to 15m of diving plank boards. Pick the one you are comfortable with. I've done quite a few adventures in my live and this one takes the cake. With no one to push you down the plank, you have to pluck out your courage from god-knows-where and take the leap of faith. Been there, done that and I wouldn't recommend jumping the 15m one because it can be dangerous! But it was all in all an experience so I'll just take it with me. Remember that this is an extremely dangerous sport. May lead to bruises or even something worse. So jump straight as a pencil or just google how to do cliff diving. I wished I had known that fact!

Kayaking. I'm did kayaking for the first time there and absolutely love it. Even a good 15-30mins row makes you feel good! Looking out towards the boundless sea is an incredible feeling. There's snorkeling gears too. But I wouldn't recommend it as there was just zero marine life to see underwater.
It's party time every minute. I repeat, PARTY TIME. With constant booze and head banging music. The good vibes are contagious. The place is just a gorgeous postcard location. Everyone is mostly friendly too! Non-alcoholic friends may choose to stick to the good o' water or coke provided.

Adventure ferry ride. It takes 45mins to and fro Ariel's point from Station 1 Boracay. The journey back was insane. Why? The waves were so rough, we all ended up getting drenched. Like really head to toe all wet. But I believe we were happily drenched though. Because the situation was too absurd. Some were drinking their rum coke with added ingredients like "sea water" in the mix. You can check out the video I did and there's a scene on how absurd the situation on the boat was!

It is a super scenic place. If you could tell from the pictures, the waters around Ariel's Point were glistening under the sun. Everywhere was like a photo spot. I was too engross in doing the jump that I didn't take much pictures of the place! But anyway it's alright to just head there to chill and perhaps return back to shore with an intact body.
