What changed after Boracay's 2018 closure?
The Philippine government closed Boracay to tourists for about six months in 2018 for sewage, drainage, and regulatory rehabilitation. Reopening brought stricter accreditation rules, limits on beachfront activities, and removal of many structures that violated easements.
Can you take a car directly to White Beach?
Most visitors reach Boracay by boat from Caticlan and then use an electric tricycle or hotel transfer on the island. Motor vehicles do not travel along the main sandy stretch of White Beach, so the final approach is normally on foot.
