I don’t think you can call this a ‘thing to do’. It’s part of White Beach (closest to station 1) - it takes 5 minutes to ‘do’/see… it is great to see it, but you can see this on a walk of White Beach.

Walked pass this outcrop every day during the visit, water is crystal clear in the area, locals will help you get to the rock in a small canoe if you are trying to stay dry (water about 3 feet deep at high tide), unsure if there is a fee, I would guess there is but really small.

It’s just a rock within walking distance off the beach it has a monument on it, it’s a good location point if you want to meet people, worth seeing

Best moments at here. In Boracay, you will take awesome photos with lot of scenery but this structure gives the feeling of nature's best ambiance. Never leave before see it

At lunchtime on a weekday, few were walking at the north end of former Boat Station 1 as it was a sunny day and the sun's rays were searing.
Willy's Rock was an easy 40 second wade from the shoreline and given the rock provided shade, a welcome respite from the sun.
The rock is dedicated to Our Blessed Mother, Mary, the Mother of God. A good opportunity for a brief reflection and prayer.
Good restaurants such as Bama Grill (incorrectly called 'OBama Grill' by TA) are along the beach.

The mere sight of this location will make you realize how beautiful nature really is. Even had a rainbow this early Monday morning. It's really a fascinating sight.

Should really be awesome if you could only take photos without other people around. I don't think it 's never without people crowding the place. It's a must-see!!!

This is a very beautiful interesting cultural stop and a great place for photos. The sand around the beach is white powder that feels great on your feet.
