Good catch, Phil. Not sure why that modifier was in there to begin with.

Hi, great list. But I think you should add Scuba Diving in the list Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia & Philippines are famous for their ‘world class dive sites’. I love Raja Ampat in Papua and Komodo National Park, soooo beatiful!!

Cheers,

I love your list! Seems to cover a variety of different adventure sports to explore in Asia, which is what I need because I'd only been to trekking in Nepal. Yes, did the ABC trek =D You're absolutely right to include that in this list, absolutely stunning trek. To add on to the ABC route, we stopped at Macchapucche Base Camo too, which is right below ABC. As ot was late April, ABC was covered in snow but MBC is an amazing place too. Lots of myths surround the "Fish Tail" mountain, the nick name given to Macchapucche because of the shape of its peak. Wonderful, I'm glad to chance upon this article! Thanks Nellie!! =D

Thanks Ching. Mt Bromo definitely makes it on the list! Sounds very enticing for the adventure seekers.

Good to hear that Bittergourd! Cebu Pacific flies to Caticlan, which is the nearest airport to Boracay. It is a small budget airport, but still works! From there, it's just a 15minute boat ride over to the neighbouring Boracay. Besides that, Asian Spirit also offers budget airfares to Caticlan. There are tons of hotels dotted along the most popular White Beach, but I would highly recommend our quiet little hideout from the tourist crowd- Turtle Inn. It's a resort that's cheap yet comfortable, overlooking the sea, suitable for those on a budget but looking for somesort of comfort. My favourite part is walking through the local village en-route to the resort, you get a feel of local life, just minutes from the tourist scene.

Kite surfing in Borocay sounds like fun and since I live in South East Asia, have bookmarked it as my next destination for a beach holiday. BTW, how do you get there ? Any recommendations on lodging ?

Nice list. would like to also recommend Mt Bromo in Surabaya Indonesia. the trip from the village towards the dormant volcano in the wee hours of the night was unforgettable.

Hey! nice article about adventure sports in asia, Although it could be extended a bit more, Im missing things like surfing in indonesia (Bali is a top) or scuba-diving all around malasia and indonesia (I heard Sipadan is the Mecca for scuba divers)
