I can't help but sing this song "Postcard from Paradise" from a brit band called Flesh from Lulu.

This is the place for which I took a boatride from white beach to the back of Boracay Island. Famous for the proliferation of Puka shells, this is Puka Beach, half an hour by boat from the white beach front.

Puka Beach waters are clearer and cleaner, but the waves are stronger plus the waters run into about 10 feet deep merely 20 meters from the shore (unlike the white beach, which on a high tide runs to only about 5 feet deep up to about 100 meters from the shore). Tip: Bring your snorkels when you trek to this place.

Note: Taken with a PLL filter as usual, to temper the sun's glare on the water.

Hey Josh,

LOl Lol Lol...yeah this is Puka! The sand may not be as fine as the 'powder' white sand of the white beach yet the tranquil surroundings are worth the trip! Dude this is awesome, reminds me of Kuta Beach in Bali without the tourists and the big 'surf' waves ;)

All the best!
