Boracay in June: Weather and Sea Conditions

Boracay has no PAGASA station, so two sources are used and they measure different things. The rainfall in the first column is the PAGASA climatological normal for Roxas City, Capiz, the nearest listed station, on a different coast of Panay¹. The second is NASA POWER’s 2001-2020 climatology, a reanalysis model evaluated at the island’s coordinates and multiplied from a daily rate to a monthly total². Temperatures are from that model too, and sea-surface values are monthly means of hourly Open-Meteo model values for 2015-2024³.

Sources:¹ for the gauge column,² for rainfall and temperature in the model,³ for sea temperature.

The mean daily high falls by 1.6 C from June to July in the model, and the mean low of 26.0 C in June is the highest of any month². PAGASA places June to November in the rainy season and December to May in the dry season⁴. The PAGASA normals page describes the values as 30-year averages but does not name the years or label the rainfall unit; the figures behave as millimetres of monthly rainfall¹.

Sources disagree For June, the model puts rainfall at Boracay at 371 mm and the Roxas City gauge at 259.0 mm, about 1.4 times as much¹². The gap widens to nearly a factor of two in July: see Boracay in July. Roxas City is across Panay and the model is a grid-cell estimate, so use both to judge the season, not a particular week.

Daylight

timeanddate lists sunrise at Kalibo at 5:25 a.m. on 1 June 2027, with sunset at 6:11 p.m. on 1 June and 6:18 p.m. on 30 June⁷. Kalibo is a little east of Boracay, so sunset on the island falls slightly later.

Boracay has two monsoons. Amihan is the northeast monsoon; Habagat is the southwest monsoon. GMA News gave 30 May as the start of the 2025 Habagat⁵, so June was the first full month of it that year. A University of the Philippines study models the island as oriented northwest to southeast, with White Beach facing the southwesterly winds directly and Bulabog facing the northeasterly ones. Under southwest conditions it finds higher wind and wave setup at White Beach and lower at Bulabog⁶.

Boats between Caticlan and Boracay have been limited at Public Storm Warning Signal No. 1¹¹ and stopped at Signal No. 2⁹¹⁰ in the cases found; those storms fell in November and December. The rules and precedents are on typhoons and cancelled boats. The sources behind this page do not give which port is used in June; see the ports page.

The sources used for this page date no festival or programme on Boracay in June, so none is listed. For dated peaks elsewhere in the year see Boracay peak dates.

No arrivals report in the sources gives a June figure. The Malay tourism office recorded 1,040,847 tourists from 1 January to 15 June 2023, with January the busiest month at 177,860⁸. The office’s 2022 total of 1,759,592 works out, by simple division, to about 146,600 a month⁸. Neither number says whether June is busy or quiet, and this page does not claim it.

Allow a spare day after the last commitment on your trip, such as a flight home from Caticlan. Passengers have been stranded when sea trips were suspended, in the cases on the typhoons page, and the Coast Guard decides on the day. Entry steps at the jetty port are in Boracay entry requirements.
