Hinugtan White Beach
About This Attraction
A kilometre of powdery white sand cradled by rugged limestone cliffs and turquoise Sulu Sea waters. Hinugtan is arguably the most beautiful beach in Aklan that most travelers have never heard of. Just 20 km from Boracay and still barely discovered. Go now, while the silence still belongs to the sea.

How to Get There
Two main routes, with the road route being the most practical
Option A — By Road (Most Practical)
The most practical way to reach Hinugtan is by road. From the Barangay Mayapay national main road, you can hire a habal-habal heading to Hinugtan Beach Road. The ride usually takes around 15 to 20 minutes depending on weather and road conditions.
Habal-habal: ₱100–₱150 per person
This is the easiest and most reliable option, especially if you are travelling light. No need to hire a banca if your goal is simply to get to the beach directly.
Option B — By Motor Banca (More Scenic)
The banca route is the more scenic option. Trips usually start from Barangay Alegria, also locally known as Kalipayan, which means happiness. Along the way, you will pass other beautiful coastal spots including Tuburan Cove and Ariel’s Point before reaching Hinugtan.
Shared banca: ~₱100–₱200 per person Private banca: varies
Travel time is usually 15 to 20 minutes, depending on sea conditions. This is a more memorable route, but it is weather-dependent.
