This 6km stretch of pure white sand on Boracay, the honeymooners island, was until recently amongst the top ten beach spots in the world. Alas, no more - the typhoons of 2006 have all but destroyed it, and much of it is now underwater for much of the day.

I've been to several beaches in the world, but BORACAY ranks no. 1. Incomparable white powdery sands that never been found in anywhere else in the world.
