The name Boracay has its origins
in
the untamed east beach
facing
Sibuyan Sea, known as the other
side which is
favored by windsurfers. According to popular belief, an
Ati couple (the dark skinned, curly-haired,
forest-dwelling
aboriginal tribe) discovered a
little
knoll along the other side,
surrounded by rich marine
life.
As they trapped fish, the tide began
to rise.
Akay, the woman, continued heading for deeper waters, Her concerned
husband shouted,
Bura Kay -- There are bubbles
(bura),
Akay. The landmark knoll
remains as do Akays nomadic
descendants.
They
say that a secret remains
a secret.. Especially if it
were
really a good one... |
