Boracay Couple Sunset Paraw + Beachside Dinner

The paraw is Boracay's iconic sailboat — a double outrigger with a colourful woven sail that has been a fixture of White Beach since before the resort era. Sailing on one at sunset is the quintessential Boracay romantic experience, and this private charter for two couples gives you a classic paraw with a crew of two, completely to yourselves, as the island's famous west-facing sky puts on its nightly performance.

Departure is 90 minutes before sunset from White Beach Station 2. The paraw tacks north along the coastline as the crew pours sunset cocktails (San Miguel premium lager, buko juice, or a local rum punch — your choice). The boat positions itself west of the island for the full unobstructed horizon at the moment of sunset — Boracay faces due west, and the absence of land to the south and north means the horizon is a perfect 180-degree arc of burning colour.

After the sail, you step ashore at a pre-arranged beachside table — set up in advance by the operator's partner restaurant directly on the sand, with torchlight, flowers, and a chilled bottle of Ruinart rosé champagne waiting. Dinner is a four-course Boracay seafood menu: grilled prawn skewers with mango salsa, a grilled whole snapper main with coconut rice, and a banana-flame dessert. The paraw crew ensures the restaurant staff are briefed on your timing so dinner is ready the moment you arrive from the sail.
