ust when you think
we’ve hit peak Boracay
comes a new slice of
paradise. A 25-minute
ride away from Station 1,
Kama Beach Club is quickly
gaining a cult following
among the jet-setter crowd.
Insta-gold: Four-poster
beds dotting the white
sand beach (which by some
miracle of nature has zero
algae even when the main

Kama Beach cluB


beach is clogged with it in the
summer), a swing set right in
the water, sprawling murals
by LA-based contemporary
artist Louis Carreon—you

won’t run out of spots for
your bikini OOTDs.
story-worthy: Virgin island
by day, spin central by
night. Kama founder Scott
Weissman flies in DJs from
around the world to serve

up the best beats in the Dom
Perignon-exclusive club.
comIng soon: More than 20
luxury villas, an all-organic
restaurant, a wellness center,
and their very own dock
straight from Caticlan. Most
of the property is still in the
works, but members can
enjoy the beach club ATM.
Plan your trIP: Uncover
#boracaysbestkeptsecret
by following
@kamabeachclub on IG, and
checking SkyJet Airlines for
the fastest Manila-Boracay
flights via Caticlan.

s


ee the line where the
sky meets the sea?
That’s your glorious
view when you stay at
this Siargao resort where
surf culture reigns supreme.
Insta-gold: Harana was
designed with modern
vernacular architecture in
mind, which means souped-
up nipa huts with plenty of
space for lounging around.
story-worthy:^ Located in
General Luna, the resort
offers easy access to the
famous Cloud 9 surf break
and the lesser known
Tuason, which are best
for intermediate and pro

harana surf resort


surfers, but there are also
plenty of surf breaks around
the island for beginners.
Not into surfing? Go island
hopping, check out the
Magpupungko Rock Pools, go
on a paddleboard mangrove
tour, explore the island on a
mountain bike, or even get
certified as a diver.
Plan your trIP: Reserve a
community hut bed (P700 a
night), deluxe room (P2,800 a
night), or family hut (P5,800 a
night) at haranasurf.com.
