During high season Boracay is filled with middle class and wealthy Phillipino tourists from Manila, Cebu, and other cities. Those girls are hard to game for foreign men because contrary to popular belief the Philippines is actually a rather conservative Catholic country upfront about it and (2) girls who will hang out with you at night and let you fuck them in hopes of you becoming their sugar daddy. For these girls being Phil will be a disadvantage.
I want to go to Boracay around Christmas but everybody seems to agree it's better in the low season.
So, would you recommend the low season like Naughty nomad?
I don't really see what difference it would make (in terms of easy pretty girls)?
lower prices for accomodation, more tourists from Korea or Japan?
I've been in the low season too and it wasn't very good. There really weren't that many tourists at all and it rains a decent amount. The clubs and bars were basically empty. Sure it's more expensive and crowded in high season but that's by far the best time. It's crazy how many clubs/bars there are on the beach and how packed they get. You can basically start at the north end and just drink your way south through all the bars. It's pretty awesome in high season.
Btw- I'm not sure the exact dates of high season but I believe it corresponds to Catholic holidays, so X-mas and Easter are huge. I believe after April-ish it starts to rain and it becomes low season, but you should confirm this.
