Hotels near Kalibo International Airport - KLO, Kalibo

We went for the Fiesta but missed some of the events. The crowd was overwhelming specially at the marketplace. There was no information center to help visitors so we had to ask constantly where to go. A lot of walking....

I flew into Kalibo to visit Boracay. That was a huge mistake. It is a long bus ride on terrible roads to get to Caticlan. The bus had no suspension to speak of. One of the bumps was so bad I was thrown into the air and injured my back. If you are visiting Boracay, make sure your plane lands in Caticlan.

Kalibo is a cute little town on a mid sized island. People are very friendly and helpful. Visit the large Church on Central Square. Try a visit to New Washington and the local memorial for Bishop Sin, who was instrumental in avoiding bloodshed during the 1986 revolution that austed the then ruling Dictator Ferdinand Marcos. That place features an ancient Port and several fish restaurants with great variety of sea food. You can probably hire the local fishermen for a boat ride.
