Panay Island is a Nice Place to Visit

Panay Island in Western Visayas, composed of Aklan, Capiz, Antique, Iloilo and Guimaras is a "must see" place. The people are charming and hospitable, there are good hotels and resorts where you can relax and stay, lots of beautiful beaches, old churches and interesting places to see. From Manila, visitors can take the plane to Iloilo, Aklan, Capiz or Antique where there is a daily flight via Philippine Airlines or Cebu Pacific. Aklan and Iloilo had more flights. From one Province to the next, you can travel by land, hire a taxi, take a van or ride in air-conditioned buses. You can also take the RORO or boat going to any destination in Panay Island. Visit Boracay in Aklan, Guimaras, Iloilo, Antique, and Capiz, the "Seafood Capital of the Philippines."

I was visiting Boracay a few times in the last 8 years living in this wonderful country, but never stood in the rest of the Panay-area for pleasure.

I was volunteering with Silliman University for a week in Guimaras to help checking the underwaterdamage done by the oil-problem.

I met wonderful people in that area and I am sure I will be back for some Scuba diving.

I like Iloilo a lot too, Island Hopper and I actually drove up from Dumaguete to Boracay once, nie drive But kind of long.

The Panay part we took on the east coast road on the way up to Boracay and the west coast road on the way back to see as much as possible of this island.
