Puka Shell Beach

A peaceful and scenic beach tucked away from the crowd and noise. The sand here is mixed with crushed puka shells and white sand, giving it a unique texture and charm. The water is clear and beautiful, perfect for relaxing or taking photos. There are a few stalls selling shakes and snacks, though prices are a bit high. Still, the calm atmosphere and stunning view make it worth the trip. A nice escape from Boracay’s busy main beach. Tip: Very close to Alta Vista de Boracay.

I love this peaceful place. I wanted to pick up shells here. And I completed my mission as I attached photos! There are various types of shells. Of course you can get a PUKA shells also.

Very nice beach so quiet far away from crowded place. If you love swimming with no disturbances or less crowd around this is a nice beach to stay for the day.

Great spot away from white sand but do believe it will be ruined in a couple of years as couple of large hotels being built and infrastructure is not upto it.

Amazing!!! I think, it’s the best beach on the whole island!!! Very clean water, almost no waves. We have seen in the water few small jellyfish, so just be careful! Apart of that, it was perfect for swimming!

A lively yet much less crowded beach compared to White Beach. The water is a beautiful, clear blue, and the sand is soft and clean—with no algae in sight. While snorkeling isn't great here since fish are mostly farther out (if any), the long shoreline offers plenty of space to relax. In the middle, there’s a charming palm grove with hammocks and mats—perfect for unwinding. And the sunset? Absolutely breathtaking!

When I heard of Puka Beach I imagined a pristine beach so isolated that you can have it by yourself and Western foreigners going there go topless, if not completely nude. That wasn't the case when I got there recently on a Boracay Land Tour together with our team building entourage. The road leading to it are lined on both sides by houses and commercial establishments. The strip of Boracay white-sand beach opens with a "talipapa" for souvenir shops and not far across it is a high-rise hotel undergoing construction. Even with the crowd, Puka remains a scenic spot to take pictures. The water is emerald green and the rolling surf approaching the sand is foaming and white. For the most part, the edge of the beach measuring a kilometer in length is grown with coconuts and natural coastal plants.

Least populated beach on boracay. Got here using hop on hop off bus. I arrived around 2 pm. Only a handful of people on the beach. The boat tours visit the beach in the morning. When you arrive, walk to the left and follow the shoreline. You will then come to a beautiful area of sand. The weather was overcast the day I visited, and the sea was a little rough. If you buy a drink from the lady, she will give you a beach mat to use. I did buy mango juice from her whilst waiting for the sunset to hopefully appear. She told me that the waters were normally very calm and lovely to swim in. We were not hopeful of a sunset due to the cloudy day, but after a little wait, we were blown away by the colourful skies. If you want some peace and tranquillity away from the busy areas of White Beach, then this is the place to come.
