It is among the two gateways to the island of Boracay, which is one of the most frequented tourist destinations of Philippines. One of the easiest and quickest ways to reach Boracay Island is by the air-route via the Caticlan Airport. Once you reach at Caticlan Airport, it is very easy to go to Boracay. Boracay is just around 30-40 minutes away from Caticlan. There are tricycles available outside Caticlan Airport which will take you to the jetty port in three minutes. From the jetty port, a boat ride lasting for about 15-20 minutes will take you to Boracay.
