You can bring all of this, except a business suite. Boracay has a casual style of wearing clothes: Most people walk around in shorts, slippers or sandals, t-shirt or polo.
I you want to look cool in the club, then wear your jeans and sneakers - you will be one of the few ones with that outfit.
Swimming wear absolutely necessary, as you will spent quite some time at one or more of Boracays beaches, eventually on and in the sea.
There aren't really any "clubs" in the traditional sense unless you count the kind of claustraphobic underground disco at Regency.
Boracay's nightlife is very relaxed and laid back, and consists mostly of semi-open air bars, often with sand on the floor, with areas for dancing outside on the beach.
At places like Summer Place, Hey Jude, Juice Bar, Club Paraw etc, even beachwear is acceptable (though most people dress it up a bit). You can hit the bars in boardshorts and no top, if you want. You don't even need to wear shoes.
I dunno where people get the impression there are clubs in Boracay. Cocomangas was about the only indoor bar we went to, and you can't really call that a club. the only club in Boracay you'd have to dress up for is the golf club!
You can wear pretty much what you want, even at Hey Jude, which is a little smarter. For girls, you can just through a little dress over your bikini if you want.
I'll be in Boracay in January as well... any other attire tips? Thank you!
Dear Jannie,
Summer/tropical wear pretty much.
If you were planning on packing some trousers, light chinos/khakis are ideal. Jeans would be hot and uncomfortable in the Bora heat. Other items you should consider are a comfortable pair of flip-flops; T-shirts (leave the polos behind); a hat/visor; and a pair of sunglasses.
Enjoy!!
